Goes deep in Saturday's win
Lewis went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, a walk, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Orioles.
Анализ
Lewis hit eighth in the order for the second straight game to open the season, but he provided the big hit for the Twins, driving a Kyle Bradish sinker over the left-field wall to give Minnesota a 3-1 lead in the fifth inning. The 26-year-old's potential run production could be a bit limited at the bottom of the order, but he'll likely move his way up if he can stay healthy and productive.

Bats eighth, lifted for PH
Lewis hit eighth in the batting order and went 0-for-2 and grounded into a double play in Thursday's 2-1 loss against Baltimore. He was also hit by a pitch before being lifted for a pinch hitter in the ninth inning with the tying run on base.
Анализ
Lewis struggled during spring training by hitting .133 (6 for 45) with two home runs and a .449 OPS. The third baseman was once thought to be a future star who would hit in the heart of the order, but new manager Derek Shelton moved him lower in the lineup and didn't trust him in a key spot in the ninth inning. It shows that Lewis has a way to go to get back to his promising 2023 season, when he clubbed 15 homers and had a .920 OPS in 58 games.
