Austin Riley Records Four-Hit Game
4 years agoAtlanta Braves third baseman Austin Riley had four hits as the club steamrolled the Chicago Cubs by a score of 10-0 on Wednesday. The young hitter slugged his third home run of the season and added a second extra-base hit with his second double. Riley opened the season with an improved approach at the plate but struggled to hit for power early on. That no longer appears to be the case and the 24-year-old looks to be in full breakout mode. He has a solid BB-K of 10-19 with a 132 wRC+ through 24 games. Last season, he posted an 88 wRC+ in 51 games. If he's still available in your fantasy league, he's an excellent option and should be eligible at both third base and in the outfield.
