Young went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's extra-inning loss to the Phillies.
Batting eighth, the Gold Glove-caliber center fielder stole his first bag of the year after a two-out single in the sixth inning. Young hasn't seen an everyday role to begin the season as the Nationals find ways to get the red-hot Joey Wiemer into the lineup, but he's started four of the team's first six games, going 3-for-14 with a double, a homer, two runs and two RBI.
