Max Kepler Breaks Out with Homer and Double in Phillies' Win
Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler had a breakthrough performance, hitting a home run and a double against the Orioles to contribute to the Phillies' 5-0 victory. This strong offensive showing came after manager Rob Thomson kept Kepler in the lineup, honoring a commitment to platoon outfielders despite Kepler's season-long slump. Kepler, who entered the game batting .200, delivered his 12th home run of the season and expressed his efforts to stay present amidst his struggles.
