Joey Meneses, primarily the Nationals DH but also playing first base, has struggled with a slugging percentage just over .200, with his last home run over 90 at-bats ago. However, he recently delivered crucial hits for the Nationals, including a walk-off single in the 10th inning against the Astros, helping secure a 5-4 win. Meneses has shown improvement with a 5-for-7 streak, contributing significantly to the team's recent victories.

And now Meneses steals second without a throw. He's the 12th of the Nationals' 15 position players this season to steal a base. (Everyone but Keibert Ruiz, Riley Adams, Eddie Rosario) https://t.co/XnrgI21e5t
