Call went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in Friday's 6-3 win over the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
Call went yard as part of the Nationals' three-run ninth inning, which held up for the win. The 27-year-old outfielder is off to a slow start in a limited role with his new team going 2-for-13 with three runs scored and a two RBI across six contests since he was promoted from Triple-A Rochester. For the season, he's slashing just .160/.300/.280 with one homer, two RBI, five runs scored and a 5:7 BB:K through 30 plate appearances between the Nationals and Guardians.

Call was recalled from Triple-A Rochester on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The Nationals claimed Call off waivers from the Guardians earlier this month, and he quickly earned a spot on the big-league roster by going 8-for-18 (.444) with a couple homers and a couple doubles over five games with Rochester. He will jump right into Washington's lineup and hit leadoff while playing left field Sunday.

Call was designated for assignment by the Guardians on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Call was optioned to Triple-A Columbus earlier this week and has now lost his spot on Cleveland's 40-man roster. He's appeared in 12 big-league games this year and went 2-for-12 with four walks and two runs score. Hunter Gaddis, who is starting Friday against Houston, had his contract selected in a corresponding move.
