Austin Hedges hits a solo homer in loss to Cubs

Hedges went 1-for-3 with a home run, one RBI, and one run scored in the Pirates' 10-6 loss to the Cubs on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

Despite the homer, Hedges is still struggling at the plate this season, hitting just .183 with a .224 wOBA and 0.225 BABIP over 40 games played. He will look to improve his numbers in the coming games.

The Pirates and free agent catcher Austin Hedges agreed on a one-year deal.

Fantasy Impact

This signing shouldn't impact fantasy managers too much. Hedges will be a veteran catcher for the young Pirates pitchers.
