Pittsburgh Pirates first baseman Josh Bell went 1-for-4 with a solo home run on Sunday against the Milwaukee Brewers. The seventh-inning dinger was his first since April 4, breaking a streak of 124 plate appearances without one. The 25-year-old has had a disappointing season to date after slugging 26 home runs in 2017. He's batting only .238/.315/.346 and is hitting the ball on the ground on 53 percent of his batted balls. Still, he's been the Pirates' everyday cleanup hitter, giving him plenty of RBI chances. It's hard to see him staying in that spot of the lineup much longer unless he starts hitting for more power, though.--Matt Wilkes
