Impact Reynolds reached base on a dropped third strike in the third inning and came around to score. He also reached base after being hit by a pitch in the ninth inning and swiped second base to tally his stolen bag of the season. Reynolds hasn't homered since April 7 -- a span of 32 games -- and he's hit just .256 with 10 RBI and 12 runs scored in that span.

On base four times Reynolds went 2-for-3 with a double and two walks Tuesday against the Rays.

Impact Reynolds had a busy day at the plate and extended his hitting streak to seven games. In that span, he has five multi-hit performances and has also recorded seven doubles, six RBI and four runs scored. Though he hasn't homered since April 7, Reynolds has still maintained a .330/.372/.585 line across 121 plate appearances.

Swipes fifth bag Reynolds went 3-for-6 with two doubles, two walks, a stolen base, three runs and two RBI across both contests in Saturday's doubleheader against Washington.

Impact Reynolds had a double and a sacrifice fly in Game 1 before reaching base in all four of his plate appearances in the nightcap. The talented outfielder pushed his season slash line to .313/.348/.566 with the big day at the plate. Reynolds went through a three-game 0-for-10 stretch at the plate last week but has since bounced back by going 8-for-17 over his subsequent five contests.

Double, stolen base in win Reynolds went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI, a run scored and a steal in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Dodgers.

Impact Reynolds drove in Pittsburgh's first run Thursday, driving in Tucupita Marcano with a base hit. He'd steal third base later in the inning before scoring on a Rodolfo Castro sacrifice fly. Reynolds has looked worthy of his newly-signed eight-year extension early this season, playing a major role in the Pirates' surprising start. The 28-year-old outfielder is slashing .301/.330/.548 with five home runs, 12 runs scored and 20 RBI through his first 103 plate appearances.

Inks eight-year, $106.75M extension Reynolds and the Pirates reached agreement Tuesday on an eight-year, $106.75 million contract extension, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post Gazette reports.

Impact There is also a ninth-year club option for 2031 that is worth $20 million with a $2 million buyout. Reynolds did not receive the opt-out clause that he had reportedly been seeking, but the deal does include some form of no-trade protection. It seems like a fairly team-friendly long-term pact for a player who has been consistently excellent since his arrival in the majors in 2019. Through his first 22 games this season, the 28-year-old outfielder carries an .872 OPS with five home runs, 18 RBI, three stolen bases and 13 runs scored.

Reynolds is still hitting .280/.311/.524 across 90 total plate appearances on the campaign, but he's cooled off quickly.
