Delivers another two-run shot Tellez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and two strikeouts during the loss to Atlanta in Game 4 of the NLDS on Tuesday. Impact Tellez mirrored Game 1 during the fifth inning Tuesday when he gave Milwaukee a lead with a two-run, 448-foot blast to center field, but the bullpen was unable to hold the advantage. The Brewers struggled to find any offense through most of the series, though Tellez did all he could with a pair of two-run homers, which accounted for four of the team's six total runs. The 26-year-old had a rough start to the season for the Blue Jays, but he found success after being acquired by the Brewers with a .272/.333/.481 slash line, seven home runs, 28 RBI and 22 runs in 56 games. Barring any offseason acquisitions, he should begin spring training as the favorite to start at first base in 2022.
