Blasts two homers in loss Buxton went 2-for-4 with a pair of home runs, four total RBI and a walk in Thursday's loss to the Yankees.
Impact Both of Buxton's homers came off Yankees ace Gerrit Cole, as he got to the right-hander for a solo shot in the first inning and a three-run blast in the second. After a 14-game stretch without a long ball from mid-May to early June, Buxton has gone deep four times in his past five games. He's tied with five others players for fifth in the league this season with 15 home runs.

Two hits including homer Buxton went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and two runs in Wednesday's win over the Yankees.
Impact Buxton singled and scored in the bottom of the fourth frame before launching a solo shot off Nestor Cortes in the following inning. The homer was his 13th of the season and second in his last four contests. The outfielder has notched at least one hit in nine of his last 11 contests, raising his average from .202 to .224 over that stretch while adding two homers, three RBI and six runs. After a very difficult first two months at the plate, Buxton could be turning a corner.
