Lowe went 3-for-4 with a three-run homer, an additional RBI and one steal in Sunday's loss to the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
Lowe was the lone source of offense for the Rays on Sunday, driving in all four of the team's runs. The outfielder turned a hanging slider from Freddy Peralta into a three-run home run in the fourth inning, scoring Randy Arozarena and Harold Ramirez, then scored Arozarena again in the eighth on a single. With 11 home runs and nine stolen bases through 38 games, Lowe is joined by Ronald Acuna as the only two players with at least eight homers and eight steals in MLB, displaying his incredibly useful skill set for category formats.

Lowe went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's 6-5 loss to the Yankees.
EDGE Analysis
All of Tampa Bay's offense came on homers Friday, with Lowe's eighth-inning shot off Michael King looking like the game-winner until Anthony Rizzo answered in the bottom of the frame. Lowe has gone yard in back-to-back games, and the 25-year-old outfielder is up to nine homers in 31 contests while slashing .328/.374/.660 with six steals, 22 runs and 28 RBI.
