Nolan Arenado hits first two home runs of season Monday

Nolan Arenado went 2-for-4 with two home runs and five runs batted in, but it wasn't enough as the Orioles rallied for a 9-7 win over Arizona on Monday.
Fantasy Impact:
Arenado hit a two-run home run off of Baltimore starter, Dean Kremer, in the fourth and then belted a three-run shot off of Albert Suarez in the fifth. The veteran third baseman entered the game on a 1-for-15 slump and was hitting just .180 on the season with three runs batted in prior to Monday's game. He raised his average to .204 on the year (11-for-54) and upped his slugging percentage 133 points to .333 through 15 games. He's not the offensive player he used to be, but he can still produce games like this on occasion.
