EDGE Analysis

Newman took Michael Pineda deep in the fifth inning, going back-to-back with Michael Perez. It was his first home run of the campaign and only his third extra-base hit overall. As that implies, Newman has yet to get his bat going, as he's hitting just .176/.208/.250 across 72 plate appearances.
