Ryan O'Hearn - Launches sixth homer O'Hearn went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 8-6 victory over the Rays.
Impact O'Hearn's been on quite a run while filling in for Ryan Mountcastle (illness).

O'Hearn is now slashing an impressive .345/.383/.632 with six homers, 20 RBI and 16 runs scored through 94 plate appearances.
