Jake Mangum went 3-for-4 with his first home run of the season on Saturday, helping the Pirates to a 10-9 win over the Twins.
Fantasy Impact:
Mangum took Twins' starter, Bailey Ober, deep with one out in the second for his first home run in a Pirates' uniform. It was his first homer since last September 24 and was just his fourth career blast in 158 career games. Mangum also stole his seventh base of the season on Saturday, but just his second in May. Mangum entered the game hitting just .185 (5-for-27) with no extra-base hits during the month and had seen his playing time decrease as a result. Overall, he's hitting .267 with a home run and eight RBI in 40 games this season.
