Rafael Flores belts first career major league homer Thursday
by David Leisering | Pirates Correspondent | Fri, Jun 12th 12:46am EDT
Rafael Flores went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a double, two runs scored, and three runs batted in on Thursday in an 8-6 loss to the Dodgers.
Fantasy Impact:
Flores hit his first big league home run off of Dodgers' starter, Justin Wrobleski, with one out in the fifth inning. The young catcher added a double to give him his first career two-hit effort. The Pirates are hurting behind the plate at the moment, so Flores has an opportunity in the immediate future to get a number of reps. His three at bats on Thursday were his first of the season after going 3-for-15 in seven games a year ago.
