Wood went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Giants.

The 22-year-old took Kyle Harrison deep in the first inning, and it turned out to be all the offense the Nats would need. Wood has a .952 OPS in May and continues to march toward a breakout campaign, slashing .284/.380/.543 through 52 games this year with 13 homers, seven steals, 33 runs and 35 RBI.
