Tucker went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in the win over the Guardians on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Tucker took Zach Plesac deep for a three-run shot in the bottom of fifth inning, expanding the Astros' lead to 7-1. The long ball was his eighth of the year and first in his last seven games.

Overall, he has maintained a .248/.348/.459 line across 155 plate appearances.

The outfielder now has seven stolen bases on the season, three of which have come in his last four contests.
