Elly De La Cruz Collects Four Hits, Two Homers Monday
4 months agoCincinnati Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz had another electric game at the plate in Monday's 10-3 win over the Marlins. De La Cruz went 4-for-5 with two doubles, a solo home run, and a two-run HR. The 22-year-old got things started by driving a first-inning Roddery Munoz cutter over the right-field wall for a two-run shot and added an even deeper drive to right field in the eighth inning off of Shaun Anderson. He had gone hitless in August, so it was nice to see a big game. De La Cruz has provided everything fantasy managers were hoping for, slashing .261/.347/.496 with 20 HR, 73 runs scored, 48 RBI, and 57 stolen bases in 474 plate appearances.
