Flowers went 1-for-2 with a two-run homer in the fourth inning of the Braves' 6-4 loss to the Nationals on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Flowers hit his seventh home run off Tanner Roark to provide the Braves with their first runs of the game. The 32-year-old's 2018 average is just .233, and this was his first home run since Aug. 28. However, Flowers has driven in five runs over his last three games, and will look to carry this momentum over the final two weeks of the regular season.

Flowers signed a one-year extension with the Braves on Tuesday which includes a club option for a second additional year, Jon Heyman of FancredSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Flowers will get $4 million in 2019 and a club option for $6 million in 2020, which includes a $2 million buyout, according to Heyman. The catcher has split time fairly evenly with Kurt Suzuki over the past two years. His numbers have declined from .281/.378/.445 last season to a modest .225/.354/.335 this year, but he'll remain with a team that seems to like him, so he should hold onto a solid amount of playing time over the next two years unless his performance craters.

Flowers is out of the lineup Sunday against the Diamondbacks.
EDGE Analysis
The Braves are continuing to stick to their plan of alternating the starts at catcher, so Flowers will take a seat in the series finale after he was behind the plate in Saturday's 3-0 loss, finishing 1-for-4 with a double. Kurt Suzuki will serve as the Braves' backstop in their final game of the first half, catching for Julio Teheran.
