Kiermaier is slashing only .183/.247/.324 through 25 contests with two homers, seven RBI and eight runs, but his glove should keep him in Tampa Bay's outfield rotation.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

Kiermaier did his damage early with a single in the third inning and a double and theft of third base in the fifth for only his second multi-hit game of the season. The 34-year-old has been slumping through May, going 1-for-18 over the five games prior to Saturday's effort, and the steal was his first of the season. If Kiermaier's .188/.243/.333 slash line holds, he would post career lows in each category.

The Rays are opposing a right-handed pitcher (Josh Winder) in the series finale, but the lefty-hitting Kiermaier will nonetheless find himself out of the lineup in what could just be a maintenance day.

Kiermaier went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Saturday's extra-inning win over Boston.

EDGE Analysis

The AL East combatants battled to a scoreless tie after nine innings, pushing the game to extra frames. Boston scored a pair of runs in its half of the 10th but made a crucial error in the bottom of the inning to prolong the game.

It was the first homer of the season for the veteran outfielder, who has struggled to a .152/.243/.303 slash line thus far.
