Oneil Cruz hit a three-run home run in the top of the first inning to lift the Pirates to an 8-3 victory in Cincinnati on Wednesday. Cruz finished the day 2-for-5 with two runs scored and three runs batted in.
Fantasy Impact:
Cruz, who homered twice on Tuesday, now has three round trippers in his last two games to put him in a tie for the National League lead - with four others - with three homers on the season. Cruz hit the home run off of Cincinnati starter, Andrew Abbott, with two outs which turned out to be plenty of offense with Paul Skenes on the mound. He is 5-for-9 in his last two games and is now hitting .304 (7-for-23) with three homers and six runs batted in through six games.
