Kiermaier went 2-for-4 with a triple and a run scored in a 5-3 loss to the Twins on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Kiermaier is now hitting .321 in August, continuing his curious trend of excelling at the plate on alternating months throughout 2015. The second-year outfielder showcased his speed with a fifth-inning triple and eventually scored on a Grady Sizemore single to break a 1-1 tie. Kiermaier has shown improvement in strikeout rate and stolen bases this season while experiencing regression in homers and RBI, an inconsistency common in players of his experience level.
