Just looked at his stats: He had 0 HR's in a combined 103 AB's with Tampa and the Dodgers. He had 4 doubles with Tampa. He 3 HR's and 2 doubles with us.



He was a prodigious HR hitter in Japan. He showed some pop with TB in 2020 but I'm guessing his K rate was just too much for them and LA. He struck out 39 times in those 103 AB's

The knock on him was that he has trouble catching up to MLB fastballs. But so far so good.

aren't all his homers off lefties? A little surprising.

No, Happ was the only LHP. Ponce de Leon and Clarke (tonight) are RHPs.

Nice play by Newman in the 9th to rob a hit.
