Riley hits home run, scores two runs
Austin Riley went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored, two RBI, and a walk in the Braves’ lopsided 9-2 victory over the Mets on Sunday. Riley rudely greeted new Met reliever Ryne Stanek with a towering home run that nearly hit the facing of the second deck in the seventh inning to all but put this game away. Suddenly, Riley has his OPS up to .771 after it sat at a lowly .618 on June 13th.
Bauers hits two-run homer
Jake Bauers had a two-run homer, a triple and a walk Sunday as the Brewers topped the Marlins 6-2. Bauers hasn’t received consistent playing time of late, but he should be in line for most starts against righties with Christian Yelich down, unless the Brewers acquire another bat. He’s 5-for-13 with three walks in three starts and three appearances off the bench during the second half.
