Belts first homer since break
Yastrzemski went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Thursday's win over the Nationals.
Analyse
Making the start in left field and batting eighth, Yastrzemski tied the game at 3-3 when he got hold of a hanging curveball from Jake Irvin in the fifth inning and drove it into the right-field seats. Yastrzemski hadn't gone yard since July 9, but he'd seen just 20 plate appearances in nine games between homers as he tries to hang onto a consistent spot in the lineup against right-handed pitching. Through 54 PAs in July, the 35-year-old has managed a .239/.333/.478 slash line with three of his seven home runs on the season, and 11 of his 30 RBI.

Sitting for first game of day
Yastrzemski is out of the lineup for the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Mets.
Analyse
Lefty Sean Manaea is on the bump for the Mets for the first game of the day, so the left-handed-hitting Yastrzemski will retreat to the bench. Expect Yastrzemski to return to the starting nine for the nightcap, when right-hander Christian Scott will toe the rubber for New York.

On bench against lefty
Yastrzemski is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.
Analyse
The left-handed-hitting Yastrzemski will be on the bench against Mets southpaw Zac Thornton in the series opener, but he should be able to hold down a regular spot in the lineup versus right-handed pitching moving forward. After coming off the injured list last Tuesday, Yastrzemski made five starts -- all against righties -- in Atlanta's ensuing six games and went 2-for-13 with a walk.
