Carroll batted second and went 1-for-4 with a double in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Carroll had been dropped to the lower third of the order against left-handers a couple of weeks ago, but he was moved back to the top third Wednesday. A 12-game stretch during which he slashed .340/.446/.511 may have influenced manager Torey Lovullo's decision to get Carroll higher in the order.
