It was Kelenic's 11th home run on the season, and the 25-year-old is now hitting .258 with seven home runs, 18 runs scored, 11 RBI, and four steals since moving into the lead-off spot. The lineup around him continues to suffer injuries, but he just keeps producing solid deep-league fantasy value.
Kelenic has been a revelation since being inserted as the Braves' lead-off hitter. He's batting .298 with six homers, 14 RBI, 13 runs scored, and three stolen bases in 21 games as the lead-off man. On the season, his OPS is .772 which would be higher than that of any player on the Mariners.
Jarred Kelenic smashed a three-run home run as the Atlanta Braves extend their lead over the Philadelphia Phillies.
Albies got the scoring started in the home half of the first inning with an RBI single off of Ranger Suarez that scored Jarred Kelenic. He then rode home on Marcell Ozuna's two-run blast. Albies tacked on a mammoth 431-foot (113.7 mph EV) two-run shot off of Suarez in the fifth inning that made it a 5-1 ballgame. He finished the evening 2-for-4 and is now hitting .266/.320/.423 with eight long balls and 43 RBI on the year.
