Rowdy Tellez Hits Three-Run Pinch Hit Home Run In Win
3 years agoMilwaukee Brewers pinch hitter Rowdy Tellez hit a three-run home run in his only at-bat during Wednesday's 4-2 win over Pittsburgh. The 26-year-old wasn't in Wednesday's lineup, but he delivered a go-ahead blast in the seventh inning when he pinch hit for pitcher Brent Suter. Tellez is up to nine homers, 24 RBI, 22 runs scored and a .748 OPS through 215 plate appearances between Milwaukee and Toronto this year. He's consistently been in the lineup versus right-handed pitching, but he's likely to remain limited to a strong-side platoon role with Eduardo Escobar shifting over to first base against southpaws.
