Ryan Zimmerman continued his resurgence at the plate for the Nationals last week. The veteran first baseman connected for four home runs and drove in nine runs in five games, hitting .350/.381/1.000 in the process. However, Wilmer Difo led the team with eight hits for the week. Difo, Brian Goodwin and Bryce Harper each homered twice for the Nats.
