Pops second homer

Hummel went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Phillies.

Analysis

Humel accounted for the only run of the game when he slugged his second home run of the season in the eighth inning. Upon getting called up from Triple-A Sugar Land on June 14, Hummel saw scant playing time initially, but he's now picked up three starts in left field in the last four contests. Hummel has gone 3-for-9 in that span, though he's had difficulty making consistent contact and has a 43.5 percent strikeout rate across only 23 plate appearances this season.
