Esmerlyn Valdez homers for second straight game Tuesday
by David Leisering | Pirates Correspondent | Wed, May 27th 6:38am EDT
Esmerlyn Valdez belted a two-run, first-inning home run on Tuesday to help the Pirates to a 12-1 victory over the Cubs.
Fantasy Impact:
Valdez took Cubs' starter Jordan Wicks deep with one on and two out in the first to cap off a five-run inning for the Pirates. It was his second home run in as many days and was his only hit of the day, though he did add a bases-loaded walk in the fifth for a three-RBI effort. In four games since his call up, Valdez has been all or nothing, going 2-for-12 with two home runs and seven strikeouts.
