Goes yard in return D'Arnaud went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a second run scored in Monday's 13-1 rout of the Mets.
Impact After missing the prior seven games due to a lower-leg issue, d'Arnaud got the start at catcher Monday and hit seventh, and his three-run blast off Mychal Givens in the sixth inning capped the scoring on the night for Atlanta. The veteran backstop hadn't gone deep since late June, snapping a 22-game homer drought with the performance, and on the season d'Arnaud is slashing .257/.310/.449 with 12 home runs and 43 RBI in 73 games. Expect the 33-year-old to split time with William Contreras the rest of the way as Atlanta tries to keep both catchers healthy for the playoffs.

Won't return until Monday D'Arnaud (lower leg) isn't expected to return until Monday at the earliest, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Impact D'Arnaud hasn't played since last Saturday due to a lower leg injury. Previous reports indicated he'd be back for the weekend series against the Marlins, but he remains unable to squat probably, so he'll remain shut down for a few more days. A trip to the injured list doesn't appear to be on the cards just yet, however. Chadwick Tromp will continue to back up William Contreras in his absence.
