Collects three RBI as pinch hitter
Chaparro went 2-for-2 with a double, three RBI and two runs scored during Saturday's 8-2 win over the Reds.
Análisis
Chaparro pinch hit for Jose Tena in the sixth inning, and the former answered the call by smacking a two-run double to left field before coming home to score in the same frame. Chaparro added an RBI single and a run in the eighth, and it was the third time this season that he's recorded at least three RBI in a game, all of which have come since the All-Star break.

Back in action Tuesday
Chaparro (head) will start at first base and bat second Tuesday against the Phillies.
Análisis
Chaparro took a pitch off his head Sunday before missing out on the starting nine Monday, though he was able to enter Monday's contest as a pinch hitter. Now having recovered from the incident, the 27-year-old will return to the starting nine and aim to remain productive after slashing .310/.412/.897 with five homers, 14 RBI and nine runs in 13 games since the All-Star break.

Omitted from lineup
Chaparro (head) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies, Mark Zuckerman of NatsJournal.com reports.
Análisis
Despite passing concussion tests after he made an early exit from Sunday's 4-2 loss to Atlanta when he was struck in the helmet by a pitch, Chaparro will be kept on the bench for the series opener in Philadelphia. Even though the Nationals traded Luis Garcia to the Yankees following Sunday's contest, Chaparro could end up sticking in his short-side platoon role at first base rather than seeing a major uptick in an opportunities against right-handed pitching. Washington recalled the left-handed-hitting Abimelec Ortiz from Triple-A Rochester on Monday, and he'll step in at first base right away in the Nationals' first game post-Garcia while right-hander Aaron Nola toes the slab for the Phillies.
