4 years agoHouston Astros right fielder Kyle Tucker hit his fourth home run of the season in the Astros 7-3 loss to the A's on Saturday. The young slugger may only be hitting .189 for the season but now has four home runs over his last six games. Even more impressive, Tucker now has driven in a run in eight of his first nine games for a team-high 11 on the season. Once a highly-touted prospect, Tucker made a breakthrough last season thanks to an impressive .990 OPS with runners in scoring position. The 24-year-old is once again producing when it matters and his batting average should rise with that production over time.--Joey C - RotoBaller
