It’s a power surge for Milwaukee Brewers shortstop Orlando Arcia. On Saturday against the Pirates, Arcia slugged two home runs, including the go-ahead homer in the 13th inning, bringing his season total up to eight long balls.
And it’s only June 1st.
A Resurgent Season
2019 has gotten off to a much better start for Arcia than 2018 did. On June 1st last season, Arcia was hitting .203 with a .525 OPS and two home runs. This year, Arcia is hitting .264 with a .766 OPS and eight home runs on June 1st.
