Another three-hit performance Robles went 3-for-5 with an RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base Saturday against Atlanta.

He's also recorded at least one hit in five of his last six games, bringing his season-long line to .265/.336/.354. Perhaps most importantly, he was hitting atop the Nationals' order for the second consecutive game. He took advantage of the improved opportunity to run on the basepaths, swiping his second bag of the season.

SEPTEMBER 6, 2020 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Three hits in Friday's matinee Robles went 3-for-4 during a 7-1 loss to Atlanta in the first game of Friday's doubleheader.

Impact The center fielder went 0-for-4 in the nightcap but did score a run, getting the nod in the leadoff spot both times.

Three hits in Friday's rout Robles went 3-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in Friday's 10-2 win over the Red Sox.
