Fantasy Impact:
This explosive output is a significant highlight in what has been a challenging season for Bethancourt, who has struggled to maintain a consistent batting average, currently sitting at .220 over 49 games. Despite his overall struggles at the plate, this game demonstrates his potential impact in power categories, particularly in RBI and runs scored. Fantasy managers should note this performance as a sign of what Bethancourt can offer, though his sporadic production may limit his viability to deeper leagues or as a streaming option when facing favorable matchups.
