  • Newly-minted Bostonian Alex Bregman (Red Sox) made quite a splash in a Fenway Park doubleheader on April 6. The third baseman began the day by showing off his trademark plate discipline: after facing a 1-and-2 count against RHP Andre Pallante (Cardinals), he stretched the at-bat to 10 pitches and ended up drawing a walk. Boston ended up winning 5-4 in 10 innings, with Bregman going 0-for-4 at the plate. But he more than made up for that disappointment with a career day in Game 2, going 4-for-5 with a 3-run home run that traveled 411 feet over the center-field wall, 2 doubles, and 6 RBIs in an 18-7 thrashing of St. Louis. It marked the seventh 4-hit game of Bregman’s career and the second time he has driven in 6 runs (4/7/2025)
  • 1B Matt Mervis (Marlins) broke out in a big way in a 4-0 shutout of the Braves on April 5, going 3-for-5 with 2 dingers and 3 RBIs. The homers, his first in a Miami uniform, made Mervis the 18th MLB hitter this season to record a multi-HR game. “I was never discouraged,” said Mervis, who entered the day 2-for-15 with 7 strikeouts, in an post-game interview. “The confidence is always there. I’ve been doing really good work with the hitting coaches, just really waiting for it to click. And then today, it finally did.” Mervis’s second HR traveled 421 feet (4/6/2025)

News and Stats

  • LHP Max Fried (Yankees) tossed 5.2 innings of one-run ball to earn his first win as a Yankee, a 9-4 triumph over the Pirates on April 4. Fried, who signed an 8-year, $218-million deal with New York during the offseason, gave up 6 hits and one walk while striking out 6 batters. He also picked off a runner at first base (4/6/2025)
  • RHP Jake Bird (Rockies) was stellar in a 12-5 win over Oakland on April 6, striking out 5 of his batters he faced over 2 perfect innings to earn a hold, and needing just 25 pitches to do so. In 4 appearances this season, Bird has allowed just one hit and one walk over 5 scoreless innings while striking out 7 batters (4/7/2025)
  • Jordan Jaffe, a junior 1B/3B at the U. of Richmond, is blistering opposing pitchers this season. The California native is hitting .408 (53-for-130) with 8 HRs, 15 doubles, 42 RBIs, OBP of .470, and 1.193 OPS. Those stats ranking him in the Top 50 of all D-1 hitters in both batting average and RBIs per game, and tie him for #9 with 0.50 doubles per game (4/7/2025)
