As the lone righty sandwiched in between four lefties, Torkelson got to face the newly recalled Kody Funderburk in the sixth inning today and homered off him. It was his fourth long ball in 62 plate appearances this season. He’s definitely not going to keep on hitting .314 — this is a guy with a .236 average in 133 career Triple-A games — but the nice power numbers seem likely to stick around.

Greene, 24, drove in three runs with the two homers. The first was a solo blast off Ronel Blanco, the second a two-run shot off Kaleb Ort that made the score 8-5 Astros in the eighth. Greene has gone through ups and downs already in his 2025 campaign, but this helped improve his line to .234/.280/.441 with six homers and 16 RBI through 28 games.

Carpenter took Ronel Blanco deep for a two-run shot that gave the Tigers a 2-0 lead in the third. The 27-year-old power-hitter has six homers on the season with a .508 slugging percentage. He’s also hit .270 on the year, but fantasy managers would like to see that .298 on-base percentage improve for more chances to score runs.

Flaherty allowed a pair of two-run homers; one to Christian Walker in the fourth and another to Jose Altuve two innings later. Minus those roundtrippers the right-hander pitched fine, but it’s hard to erase a pair of two-run blasts.

With the scored tied 0-0, Soderstrom laced a two-run double off Patrick Corbin to give the A’s the lead and ultimately the victory. The 23-year-old first baseman has been exceptional over the first month of the season with 24 RBI over 29 games and an OPS of .940.

It was the only hit of the game for Walker, but if you’re only going to get one hit, you might as well make it a homer. Walker has gone deep four times in his first year with the Astros, but is still slashing an ugly .192/.273/.354 over the first 27 games of the campaign. Those numbers will improve, but there’s no denying the first sixth of the season has been a disappointing one for the veteran first baseman.

Kurtz takes a seat with lefty Patrick Corbin on the mound for Monday’s series opener at Globe Life Field. The 22-year-old top prospect is hitting .250 (4-for-16) with three RBI through five games since being promoted last week to the big leagues. Some initial turbulence isn’t unexpected as Kurtz acclimates to life in the majors less than a calendar year after being selected fourth overall in the draft. It’ll be Tyler Soderstrom at the cold corner on Monday night in his place.
