Pops 10th home run Wednesday
Carpenter went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Astros.
Analyse
The seventh inning blast for Carpenter was his 10th of the season and fourth this month across 13 games. The 30-year-old outfielder is now sporting a .946 OPS in June, and he continues to do most of his damage against righties. On the season, Carpenter has an .832 OPS in those matchups versus only a .490 OPS in limited action against southpaws.

Taking seat against lefty
Carpenter isn't starting for Detroit in Saturday's matchup versus the Guardians.
Analyse
Carpenter has only 12 plate appearances against southpaws this season and has gone 1-for-10, so it's not surprising that he's beginning on the bench versus Cleveland lefty Joey Cantillo. Wenceel Perez is drawing the start in right field in Carpenter's stead Saturday.
