The Nationals have overcome their slumping big bats with pitching, defense and two of the hottest hitters in the National League. They have made 11 errors during the 25-game span, tied for third fewest in the majors. It’s hard to imagine any double play combination is playing better defense than Danny Espinosa and Ian Desmond right now.

Should that be: "Pct of Balls Turned Into Outs ......"

without the "Lowest" part?  That has me confused.

The top of the chart shows the "lowest"

The Nations are not part of the "chart"

They are listed as leaders as an * to the chart
