Racks up four hits Saturday Wood went 4-for-6 with a double, two runs and a stolen base in Saturday's 11-6 victory versus Cincinnati.
Impact Wood entered Saturday without a multi-hit effort in his past seven games, but he snapped that streak with his first four-hit performance of the season and the third of his career. The talented young outfielder also swiped a bag for the second straight game, and he's now up to five thefts on the season. Wood has shown solid growth in his sophomore MLB campaign; in addition to already tying last season's mark of nine homers in less than half as many games, he's slashing .273/.384/.547 over 151 plate appearances and has driven in 21 runs.

Goes yard again Monday Wood went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Monday's loss to the Mets.
Impact His massive 438-foot blast to right-center field spoiled a combined shutout bid for New York, coming in the eighth inning off Jose Urena. Wood is one back of Eugenio Suarez and Cal Raleigh for the major-league lead in home runs with nine, and the 22-year-old longest homer drought of the season so far is only five games. Through 127 plate appearances, Wood is slashing .257/.362/.560 with three steals, 18 runs and 20 RBI as he surges toward a breakout campaign.

Scorches eighth homer Wood went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Wednesday's win over the Orioles.
Impact The 22-year-old outfielder absolutely demolished a Tomoyuki Sugano sinker to lead off the bottom of the first inning, as the ball left his bat at 116.3 mph -- the hardest-hit homer of Wood's career. Per Jessica Camerato of MLB.com, only Bryce Harper has matched that exit velocity on a Nats homer since Statcast begin tracking the metric in 2015. Wood is slashing .256/.356/.578 through 24 games with eight homers, three steals, 17 runs and 18 RBI, and his eight long balls are just one off the major-league lead shared by Cal Raleigh, Tyler Soderstrom and Corbin Carroll.
