Max Muncy Goes Deep In Win Over Braves
4 weeks agoLos Angeles Dodgers third baseman Max Muncy went 2-for-5 with a home run, two runs scored and a strikeout in the team's 9-2 win over the Atlanta Braves on Sunday at Truist Park. Muncy's 15th home run of the season was a solo shot and came off reliever John Brebbia in the ninth inning in a frame in which the Dodgers exploded for three long balls and seven total runs. Since returning from a lengthy stint on the injured list due to an oblique injury on Aug. 19, the 34-year-old Muncy has hit .231 (15-for-65) with six home runs, four doubles, 12 RBI, 13 walks and 15 runs scored in 22 games (20 starts). Four of his six long balls have come in the last seven games, so Muncy is definitely heating up at the right time for an already potent and explosive Dodgers lineup. Muncy is not going to provide average help for fantasy managers, but you can't argue with his power and RBI opps in this Dodgers offense.
