Key factor in early rally Riley went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, an additional run scored and an RBI double in Sunday's 12-10 win over the Phillies.
Impact Riley was a major factor in the Braves' 10-run second inning. He opened the scoring by plating Adam Duvall with a double and then scored the second run when Dansby Swanson drew a bases-loaded walk. Riley capped off the rally with a two-run blast. The third baseman is slashing .232/.282/.453 with six homers, 17 RBI and 12 runs scored through 28 games.

Launches fifth homer Riley went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, an RBI and a run scored Friday but the Braves lost to the Phillies 7-4 in 11 innings.
Impact Ender Inciarte led off the seventh inning with a home run and Riley followed him up with a blast of his own. The young third baseman has tallied a base-knock in seven of his last eight games but is still hitting just .216/.263/.409 on the season.

Starts rally with fourth homer Riley went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Phillies.
Impact The young third baseman got Atlanta on the board in the seventh inning with his fourth homer of the year, ending Zack Wheeler's shutout bid and getting the ball rolling on a comeback. Riley has a modest four-game hitting streak going, but his .189/.247/.365 slash line through 22 games remains poor. If there's a silver lining to his struggles this season, it's that his 29.6 percent strikeout rate and 7.4 percent walk rate are both improvements on his performance as a rookie.

Clubs third homer Riley went 2-for-4 with a single and a two-run home run in Monday's 13-8 loss to the Phillies.
Impact This was Riley's first multi-hit game of the season. Putting bat to ball with consistency has been a problem for Riley, who entered with the night with a 37.2 K%, but Johan Camargo is in a similar funk and does not appear to be an immediate threat to usurp Riley as the primary third baseman.

Goes yard Tuesday Riley went 1-for-3 with two walks and a three-run home run in Tuesday's 10-1 rout of the Blue Jays.
Impact His fifth-inning blast chased Matt Shoemaker from the game. Riley's second stint in the majors has gone much the way his first one did in 2019 -- while he's flashing his power with two homers and a double through nine games, he isn't making much other contact and is hitting .138 (4-for-29) with 11 strikeouts.
