Hernandez went 2-for-3 with a three-run home run in Friday's 7-3 win over the Rays.
EDGE Analysis
The Dodgers were behind early, but Hernandez went deep in the fifth inning off Rays starter Tyler Alexander to tie the game at 3-3. Hernandez went 7-for-32 (.219) over 10 contests between his two most recent homers, and this was his fourth multi-hit effort over 18 games in August. The utility man is now slashing .215/.276/.341 with eight homers, 32 RBI, 32 runs scored and no stolen bases over 100 games this season. Friday was the first time the Dodgers have faced a southpaw starter since Max Muncy was activated from the injured list Monday, so it's possible Hernandez could still find his way into the lineup versus southpaws with some regularity.

Hernandez went 3-for-5 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Hernandez posted his second three-hit game this month. He came up big in the 10th with a leadoff double to tie the game before eventually coming around to score the winning run. Over his last nine games, Hernandez is slashing .333/.405/.545 with seven RBI, six runs and a 4:4 BB:K. He's reached base safely in all but one game over that span. For the year, the 32-year-old is slashing .214/.281/.338 with seven homers, 26 RBI, 30 runs and a 25:63 BB:K in 292 plate appearances.

Hernandez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 9-5 win over the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Hernandez went 14-for-57 (.246) during his 16-game homer drought, which he snapped with a fifth-inning blast Friday. The utility man is up to seven homers this year. He hasn't hit consistently or for power well this year with a .209/.276/.333 slash line, 25 RBI, 28 runs scored and 11 doubles over 89 contests. Despite Hernandez's flaws, he's seen a starting role at third base lately, though he'll likely get platooned once Max Muncy (oblique) completes a rehab assignment.

Hernandez went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk, two runs and two RBI in Saturday's 10-0 win over Oakland. He also pitched one inning, giving up a hit and no runs.
EDGE Analysis
Hernandez was part of a late-game explosion by Los Angeles' offense, as he doubled home a run in the eighth inning and added another RBI on a single in the ninth. Those contributions helped the Dodgers build a 10-0 lead, and manager Dave Roberts consequently let Hernandez pitch the ninth. He did well in lofting pitches to A's hitters, giving up a two-out double but nothing more. Hernandez has gone 4-for-7 with two walks over the first two games of the weekend set versus Oakland.

Hernandez went 3-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Thursday's 6-4 win against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Hernandez opened the scoring in the contest with a second-inning RBI single and added a run-scoring double in the fourth. The utility man has hit safely in four of his past six games and is slashing .318/.318/.545 with a home run, four RBI and four runs over that span. With the Dodgers' infield decimated by injuries to Mookie Betts (hand), Max Muncy (oblique), Miguel Rojas (forearm) and Chris Taylor (groin), Hernandez has had an opportunity to play nearly every day. He's started at shortstop or third base in each of Los Angeles' past five contests.

Hernandez went 2-for-3 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's extra-innings win over Boston.
EDGE Analysis
Hernandez didn't enter the contest until he was put in to pinch hit for Gavin Lux in the seventh inning, though the former would make his presence felt, launching a leadoff homer in the bottom of the ninth to tie the game at 4-4. The utility man added an RBI single in his third at-bat to tie the game again in extra innings, giving him his first multi-hit performance this month. Hernandez has now homered twice in his last eight at-bats, though his average still sits at just .198 on the season.

Hernandez went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Saturday's extra-inning loss to Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
Hernandez gave Los Angeles an 8-4 lead with his two-run blast in the seventh inning, but the Tigers later rallied to secure the victory. Even with Max Muncy (oblique) and Mookie Betts (hand) on the IL, Hernandez has been a part-time player, starting four of Los Angeles' past seven contests. Saturday's long ball was his first of July, and he's gone 1-for-21 over 10 games this month.

Hernandez went 3-for-4 with a double and a run Sunday in a loss to San Francisco.
EDGE Analysis
Hernandez accounted for three of the Dodgers' eight hits in the contest as he recorded his first multi-hit performance since May 29. The utility man has remained an inconsistent part of the team's lineup despite injuries to Max Muncy (oblique) and Mookie Betts (wrist). Hernandez has started just three of the Dodgers' past seven games, and he carries a mediocre .208/.274/.312 slash line along with four homers and 12 RBI over 190 plate appearances on the campaign.

Hernandez isn't in the Dodgers' lineup versus the Rangers on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Hernandez is on the bench again with righty Michael Lorenzen on the mound for the Rangers. Recently acquired Cavan Biggio has the start at third and is batting eighth Thursday. Hernandez, who was serving as the primary third baseman in Max Muncy's absence, will now seem to just fill that role against lefties while Biggio will start against righties. For the season, Hernandez has a .724 OPS against lefties, but a .493 OPS against righties.
