Washington Nationals’ lineup for the series finale with the Minnesota Twins

Ryan Zimmerman went 3 for 4 in last night’s 6-2 win over the Minnesota Twins, connecting for his sixth home run of the season in the top of the third inning, a two-run blast that went 397 ft. to left field in Target Field.

Zimmerman has now hit safely in 5 of 7 games since he was reinstated from the Injured List back on September 1, going 7 for 24 (.292/.320/.708) with a total of three home runs and 10 RBIs over that span.

Washington Nationals’ skipper Davey Martinez talked after the Nats evened things up in the three-game series with the Twins, about signs that Zimmerman’s swing is where they like it to be, after a longer-than-usual rehab stint following his second trip to the IL this season for issues related to plantar fasciitis.
