Lane Thomas Heating Up After Post-Break Slump
9 months agoWashington Nationals outfielder Lane Thomas went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI, two runs scored, and two stolen bases in Saturday's 7-3 victory over the Cincinnati Reds. The 27-year-old singled and stole a base to eventually cross the plate for a first-inning run before popping a sacrifice fly to add another during the second frame. Thomas carried out a big fourth inning when he doubled in a run before swiping another bag. He then caused a throwing error while trying to steal third to allow him to come all the way around once more. After hitting a quiet 14-for-75 out of the All-Star break until Aug. 2, Thomas is quickly warming back up on the heels of smashing two home runs in Friday's contest. The 2023 revelation is hitting .288 with an .814 OPS, 18 homers, 62 RBI, and 14 swipes across 438 at-bats.
