Mark Teixeira hit his 11th home run of the season in his best game of 2015, finishing 4-for-5 with a double and two RBI. Teixeira's .963 OPS is seventh in the American League.
Fantasy Impact
Fantasy owners could have seen Teixeira hit for power in 2015, but few could see this kind of power. Teixeira had a weak 2014 season, but has enhanced his walk rate and has the best HR/AB of his career at 10.9. Teixeira also has eight doubles and is well on his way towards more than 55 extra base hits this season. Teixeira is only 1-for-6 against Tuesday's starter for the Rays, Chris Archer.
