Brady House News: Playing time dwindling

House is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Marlins.

House had started the previous two contests, but this is the third time over the last five games and the fourth time across the last eight tilts that he's been out of the lineup. The 22-year-old is slashing .213/.221/.267 with a 27:1 K:BB since the start of August. Paul DeJong will handle third base and bat eighth for the Nationals on Tuesday.
