Due to rain, the Yankees and the Diamondbacks did not play on Tuesday. That leaves Aaron Judge and Juan Soto of the Yankees in first and third place respectively, with Ketel Marte of the Diamondbacks fourt.
Send place belongs to Vladimir Guerrero Jr.of the Blue Jays. He went one for two with a walk and a hit by pitch in a 5-2 win over the Orioles. That drops Baltimore 1/2 game behind the Yankees. Fifth place goes to Bobby Witt Jr.of the Royals. He posted a two for five game with a double in the 6-5 Boston win.
The highest game score of the day belonged to Willy Adames of the Brewers. He went four for five with two home runs in a 10-0 win over the Braves. Adames brings the power with a .446 slugging percentage on a .252 BA this season.
In his past 2 games (vs. Marlins), Elly De La Cruz is 8-for-10, 5 runs, 4 doubles, 2 HR, 5 RBI and a SB. Not too shabby!
Yes, I was surprised that someone beat him both days.
