O'Neill, who'd been without a home run for eight consecutive games since returning to Triple-A Memphis on May 31, went 2-for-5 with a pair of solo homers and three RBI overall in a win over Albuquerque on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
The prodigious slugger's long-ball drought was exceedingly rare, considering he'd blasted a jaw-dropping 13 round trippers in his 29 prior games with the Redbirds. O'Neill hadn't been struggling during that stretch despite not leaving the park, however, as he'd hit safely in five straight contests at one point. Wednesday's breakout effort pushed his Triple-A line to .317/.363/.676, starkly different numbers from the .237/.268/.500 he's slashed over 41 big-league plate appearances thus far.
