Yandy Díaz continues to display a jump in his power numbers this season. The infielder went yard for seventh time this campaign to lead Tampa to a 14-5 thrashing of the Chicago White Sox. His 16 runs batted are first amongst all leadoff hitters and he is also slugging a robust .576 on the year.
Eric Hosmer deposited his second ball of the season in the stands to help the Cubs to a 5-2 win over the Padres. The Cuban-American first baseman now has 12 runs batted in on the season.
