Have a day, Ryan McKenna! The up-and-down outfielder smacked three home runs and drove in four runs in the losing effort. It was a tough day at the plate for Adley Rutschman, who played first base and struck out three times. But at least Yusniel Diaz is back and healthy; he singled twice and drove in a run.
Zac Lowther’s nightmare season continues. He cruised through the order once, but got smacked around during his second trip. Ultimately, he lasted only four innings, serving up five earned runs on eight hits, one walk, and six strikeouts in the process.
