Ryan McMahon had a tough end to July, finishing 2-for-28 at the plate. His cold streak is a thing of the past.
The Colorado infielder began August going 5-for-12 entering today, and after driving in five runs this afternoon, his showing today against the Padres matched his RBI total over his previous 20 games combined.
With ample runners on the bases, McMahon delivered. He went 2-for-3 with a two-run double in the third a three-run home run in the fifth, outscoring the Padres’ total run column by himself. There was at least one runner in scoring position for three of his four plate appearances.
