Colton Cowser Homers In Second Straight Game
7 months agoBaltimore Orioles outfielder Colton Cowser homered for the third time in two games on Friday in a 12-1 loss to the Brewers. It was a solo shot in the fourth off of Brewers' ace Freddy Peralta and would turn out to be the lone run the O's could muster in the contest. Cowser was 2-for-3 with a walk, with his other hit being a double off of Peralta. The 24-year-old had a hot spring that won him a spot on the roster and he's continued to hit now in the regular season too, with a .481 BA that includes six doubles and three home runs, along with 12 RBI, five runs scored, and even one stolen base. The lefty hitter wasn't getting consistent at-bats to begin the regular season, but with outfielder Austin Hays hitting .063 and other Oriole hitters scuffling, it will be hard to take him out of the lineup now. Over the last four games, Cowser has gone 8-for-16 (.500) with four doubles and three homers.
