Kyle Manzardo News: Goes deep in win
Manzardo entered Saturday's game as a pinch hitter and belted a three-run home run in his lone plate appearance in a 14-6 win over the Athletics.
Manzardo finished up the game at first base after stepping in for Rhys Hoskins against right-hander Luis Morales. It was the second home run of the season and first in 17 games for Manzardo, who hasn't developed as hoped during his third season in the majors. He's serving on the strong side of a platoon at first base, but the Manzardo/Hoskins tandem is slugging a league-low .283 at the position with just two home runs and 11 RBI between them.
