Rivera Homers, But Orioles Fall to Red Sox
by Jesse Garcia | Orioles Correspondent | Thu, Sep 12th 8:04am EDT
Emmanuel Rivera went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in the Orioles' 5-3 loss to the Red Sox.
Fantasy Impact:
Rivera's performance, highlighted by his third homer of the season, provided a rare spark in what has been a challenging year for the third baseman. Despite the solid game, Rivera's season batting average remains a modest .226, and his overall production has been underwhelming with only 22 RBI and 19 runs scored over 110 games. His .277 wOBA and .287 BABIP suggest limited fantasy impact, and while occasional power displays like today's are encouraging, they're too sporadic to significantly boost his fantasy value.
