Francisco Lindor Homers Twice, Drives In Five Runs
4 months agoNew York Mets shortstop Francisco Lindor went 2-for-5 in Saturday's 7-1 win over the Padres, with both hits coming via the home run. The first one in the fourth inning came with the bases loaded as he drove in four runs with the grand slam off Padres starter Michael King, and the second was a solo shot in the seventh inning. Lindor now has five home runs in his last 11 games and has collected multiple hits in four of his last five. The former first-round pick is having a phenomenal year, putting together a .269-27-78-89-25 line with a .357 wOBA and 135 wRC+. The 27-year-old now has the second-best odds for N.L. MVP behind only Shohei Ohtani.
