Carlos Santana

The stolen base was Santana's third of the season. On May 19th, he was hitting .199 in his first 43 games of the season. Since then, Santana is 47-for-163 (.288) in his last 49 games. It's certainly a remarkable turnaround for the 38-year-old veteran. Santana is hitting .245 with 14 home runs and 44 RBI on the year.

Minnesota Twins first baseman Carlos Santana's home run Saturday at Oracle Park earned him an impressive accomplishment.

Santana also drew a pair of walks in the contest, reaching base safely in each of his four plate appearances. His 361-foot (102.2 mph EV) go-ahead solo shot off of Taylor Rogers in the sixth inning that gave the Twins a lead they wouldn't relinquish. The streaky 38-year-old slugger is now hitting .247/.328/.431 to go along with 13 long balls and 41 RBI on the year.

Carlos Santana crushed a home run as the Minnesota Twins grab a lead over the San Francisco Giants.

It's likely just a routine day off for Santana, but it's notable because Jose Miranda has shifted to first base, Trevor Larnach is at designated hitter, and Matt Wallner has entered the lineup in left field. Given that Santana is hitting 11-for-44 (.250) over the last two weeks with no home runs and just two RBI, there is a chance for Wallner to carve out more playing time if he can get hot.
