Adley Rutschman Hits His Third Home Run On Monday
2 years agoBaltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman helped lead the team to a 9-2 route over the Seattle Mariners on Monday. He went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in the game. The rookie is now on a six-game hitting streak that has included five doubles and two home runs. He has a total of three home runs and 11 doubles over 30 games on the year. The 24-year-old is slashing just .234/.298/.432, but his underlying stats suggest he's been a bit unlucky as he has a .283 xBA and a .495 xSLG. He has a superb 91.4 mph average exit velocity to go along with a sturdy average launch angle of 17.4 degrees.
