Austin Riley went 2-for-4 on Thursday in the Braves’ extra-inning loss to the Mets. Riley doubled and singled against Mets starter Luis Severino in his first two at-bats on Thursday night at Citi Field during his return to Atlanta’s lineup following a one-game absence while on paternity leave. It’s been a down year relative to expectations for Riley, but he’s batting .287 (31-for-108) with seven homers and 12 RBI over his last 30 contests.
Lindor clobbers two-run homer in win vs. Braves
Francisco Lindor clobbered a two-run homer on Thursday in the Mets’ extra-inning victory over the Braves. Lindor crushed a no-doubter to left-center field off Braves ace Chris Sale to put the Mets ahead in the third inning. It was his fifth round-tripper over his last four games. He leads the senior circuit with a staggering 34 extra-base hits since being moved to the leadoff spot back on May 18. The 30-year-old fantasy superstar is batting a sizzling .309 (38-for-123) with 10 homers, 25 RBI and nine steals over his last 30 games.
