Luis García started Wednesday night’s game with .342/.354/.481 line, five doubles, two home runs, one walk, 17 Ks, and nine runs scored in 20 games and 82 plate appearances since he got the call back up to the majors on June 1st. García, 22, had also hit safely in 15 of 20 games, and reached base safely in 16 of the 20, as the Nationals noted in their pregame notes for the second of two with the Orioles in Baltimore’s Oriole Park at Camden Yards.
At short, the area of concern in his game for the Nationals as they talked development with the infielder at Triple-A for the first two months of the 2022 campaign, he started the night in OPACY with five errors in 20 games, one fielding and four throwing.
