MIKE YASTRZEMSKI NEWS

Productive in Tuesday's win Yastrzemski went 3-for-4 with two doubles, a walk, two RBI and three runs scored in Tuesday's 10-7 win over the Rockies.

Impact Yastrzemski hit fifth Tuesday, and he's started to bounce around the order as the Giants approach full health. The outfielder turned in arguably his most productive game of the year with his first multi-hit effort since May 7. It was his first game with multiple extra-base hits of the year. The 31-year-old outfielder has been solid with a .281/.371/.438 slash line, three home runs, 12 RBI, 15 runs scored and five doubles through 105 plate appearances this season.

Belts clutch homer Yastrzemski went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a sacrifice fly in Monday's 7-6 victory against the Rockies.

Impact Yastrzemski drove in a run with a sacrifice fly in the seventh inning to give San Francisco a two-run lead, but Colorado tied the score in the bottom of that frame. The outfielder then swatted a solo homer in the top of the ninth inning, and that held up as the winning run when Camilo Doval closed out the Rockies in the home half of the frame. Yastrzemski's long ball was just his third of the season after he left the yard a career-high 25 times in 2021.

Swats go-ahead homer Yastrzemski went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, an additional RBI and two walks in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Cardinals.

Impact Yastrzemski put the Giants ahead for the first time with a sacrifice fly to plate Luis Gonzalez in the second inning. In the sixth, Yastrzemski took Cardinals reliever Genesis Cabrera yard for the game-winning hit. Through five games in May, Yastrzemski is 6-for-16 with three RBI and two runs scored. The outfielder is up to a .295/.371/.410 slash line with two homers, six RBI and eight runs scored in 19 contests overall.

On base three times Yastrzemski went 2-for-4 with a walk and an RBI in Thursday's 7-1 loss to the Cardinals.

Impact Yastrzemski was sidelined from April 24 to May 4 on the COVID-19 injured list, but it hasn't slowed him down at the plate. He's 10-for-23 (.435) across his last six contests. The outfielder should be expected to hit leadoff at least against most right-handed pitchers. He's slashing .283/.356/.358 with a home run, four RBI, six runs scored and a double in 59 plate appearances this season. With Yastrzemski and Joc Pederson (groin) both in the lineup again, Austin Slater's playing time is likely to see a steep decline.
