Ford (hand/wrist) is starting behind the plate and batting seventh Tuesday against the Phillies.
The 23-year-old is making his first start since Friday, when he departed early due to pain in his left hand/wrist. Ford now appears to be fully recovered and will look to bust out of a 1-for-13 slump.

Ford was removed from Friday's game against the Angels due to pain in his left hand/wrist, Mark Zuckerman of NatsJournal.com reports.
Ford reportedly injured his hand during his final at-bat in the sixth inning, and he was lifted for a pinch hitter in the ninth. The Nationals have sent the 23-year-old for imaging to determine the severity of his injury, and an update on his status should come before Saturday's game.

Ford went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's win over the Marlins.
He took Patrick Monteverde deep to lead off the seventh inning, Ford's third homer in 23 big-league games this season. While he's flashing some power, Ford isn't doing much else at the plate. Through 48 plate appearances in August, he's compiled a .209/.292/.442 slash line with four doubles, two home runs, four RBI and seven runs.

Ford went 2-for-5 with a double, two runs scored and an RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Cubs.
The 23-year-old backstop is taking advantage of a stretch in which the Nationals have seen plenty of left-handed pitching, including Chicago's David Peterson on Wednesday. Ford has started five of the last eight games, and over that span he's batting .300 (6-for-20) with four doubles, a homer, three RBI and six runs. Keibert Ruiz remains at the top of the depth chart, but Ford could muscle his way into something more like a timeshare, rather than being stuck on the short side of a platoon, if he keeps producing when he gets an opportunity.

Ford went 1-for-3 with a double, a hit-by-pitch, one RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Athletics.
Ford was in the lineup for the second time in three games coming out of the All-Star break. The catcher has gone 3-for-8 with two extra-base hits and four RBI in those contests and looks to be in position to challenge Keibert Ruiz for playing time, particularly against left-handed pitchers. If Ford can hit well, he could also be in the mix for time as the designated hitter.

Ford went 2-for-5 with a walk, a home run, three runs scored and three RBI in Friday's rout of the A's.
In his ninth career MLB game and his Nationals debut, Ford took Justin Sterner deep for a two-run homer in the fifth inning, giving the 23-year-old backstop his first career long ball. Ford wasn't exactly lighting it up at Triple-A Rochester prior to his promotion, managing a .705 OPS and four home runs in 58 games, and he could be limited to a short-side platoon role while working behind Keibert Ruiz.
