Jake McCarthy

Jake McCarthy went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in the Diamondbacks' 9-2 victory over the Orioles.

Fantasy Impact

His performance included driving in a crucial pair of runs, marking his only hit of the game as a home run. This outing brings his season totals to a .293 batting average and his first home run of the year, suggesting a potential uptick in power that could benefit fantasy managers looking for outfield production. Despite a modest start in terms of power numbers, McCarthy's solid batting average and ability to contribute across multiple categories should keep him relevant in mixed fantasy leagues. His performance today, particularly the home run, might hint at more consistent extra-base hits moving forward, making him a player to watch or pick up if available.
