Goes yard again Friday
Wood went 3-for-5 with a double, a solo home run and a second run scored in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Yankees.
Analyse
The 23-year-old superstar took Tim Hill deep in the seventh inning to give the Nationals a 3-2 lead, but the bullpen blew another save in the ninth. Wood has left the yard six times in the last 10 games, slashing .417/.571/1.056 over that sizzling stretch, and his total of 26 homers on the season in just 95 games is five shy of the career high he set in 2025.

Belts solo homer in loss
Wood went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored during the Nationals' 6-3 loss to the Astros on Tuesday.
Analyse
Wood wasted no time in getting the Nationals on the board, taking the second pitch he saw from Tatsuya Imai deep to right-center field for a solo home run in the first inning. Wood continues to rake at the plate, and over his last eight games he has gone 12-for-29 (.414) with five home runs, 12 RBI, one steal and 11 runs scored. His .949 OPS and 25 home runs rank fourth and sixth, respectively, in the majors this season.

Crushes grand slam Monday
Wood went 1-for-2 with a grand slam, two additional runs scored, a steal and three walks in Monday's 12-11 win over the Astros.
Analyse
Wood's lone hit was a big one, as he demolished a 446-foot grand slam to center field in the fifth inning. The big outfielder has been particularly hot of late, going 10-for-25 (.400) with four homers, 11 RBI, nine runs and a stolen base over his past seven games. The 23-year-old has put together an incredible 2026 campaign, slashing .268/.398/.541 with 24 homers, 60 RBI, 81 runs and 14 stolen bases across 92 games.
