Derek Hill went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer in Thursday's 10-5 win over the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact
For the second consecutive night, Hill entered the game as a pinch-hitter and went on to get a two-run homer in the ninth inning. Thursday's shot was not a game-winner like Wednesday's, and it was also not in his only at-bat of the contest. Still, it brought home the final two runs of the game for the Phillies yet again. Hill is obviously locked in at the plate right now, as he's picked up seven hits over his last 15 at-bats overall.
Derek Hill hit a two-run homer in his only at-bat during Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Nationals.
Fantasy Impact
With the Phillies down by one with one on and two outs, manager Don Mattingly called on the recently acquired Hill to pinch hit for rookie Justin Crawford. That decision proved to be a wise one, as Hill ripped a two-run shot that ended up being the game winner. It was Hill's first home run for the Phillies, and the 30-year-old outfielder is now 7-for-21 with three RBI in a Philly uniform.
Derek Hill was dealt to the Phillies on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
The Phillies were certainly in need of some outfield depth after Adolis Garcia (shoulder) went down with an injury Wednesday, so the front office wasted no time in using an off day to acquire some. Hill can play all three spots in the outfield, and despite batting just .213 so far this season, he brings a decent power-speed element, with four homers and seven steals over 90 plate appearances for the White Sox.
Derek Hill went 1-for-4 in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Braves with one run scored, one RBI, and one stolen base.
Fantasy Impact
Hill has struggled to swing a consistent bat of late, picking up hits in just two of his last 11 games. The outfielder remains one of the more underwhelming options in the White Sox lineup, slashing .213 with four homers, eight RBI, 11 runs scored, and seven steals through 50 games.
Derek Hill went 1-for-3 in a loss to the Phillies with a solo home run.
Fantasy Impact
Hill has struggled to make an impact at the plate of late, picking up a hit for the first time in his last seven games Friday night.
