J.D. Martínez had his best evening of the campaign in the Dodgers’ 5-0 shutout of the Mets. The Cuban-American went yard twice within the four hits he smacked last night, the slugger also drove in four runs and scored two times. The Miamian saw his average jump to .274 and his 13 runs batted in place him seventh in the National League.
Adolis García connected on a three-run bomb in the eighth inning to put the exclamation point on the Rangers 12-2 shalacking of the Royals. For the native of Ciego de Ávila, Cuba it was his fourth longball on the and although he is hitting a miniscule .203 he has still driven in 17 runs.
Yandy Díaz and Randy Arozarena combined for four hits,two home runs and four runs batted in to pace the Tampa Bay Rays to a victory over 10-0 victory over the Cincinnati Reds. For Díaz it was his fifth tater of the season to go along with 12 RBIs, while for Arozarena it was his fourth roundtripper and his 18 runs batted in place him third in MLB in that category.
