Christopher Morel Homers Twice in Three-Hit Game
Christopher Morel turned in his best performance of the season Saturday in an 11-10 loss to the Miami Marlins. Morel went 3-for-3 with two home runs, a double, four RBI, and an additional run scored. The 25-year-old ended a couple of long droughts along the way. He hadn't homered since April 24, and he hadn't even knocked in a run since April 26. Morel entered the season off back-to-back years with at least 20 homers and 60 RBI, but his playing time has dropped in 2025 as a result of his struggles. He's now hitting .222/.300/.400 with five HRs, 15 RBI, and a career-worst 35.3% strikeout rate across 150 trips to the plate. Saturday's outburst was a much-needed step in the right direction.
