Kiermaier 6-for-8 Against Astros
Kevin Kiermaier really sizzled at the plate in today's 26-2 win over Astros. The Los Angeles center fielder blistered Houston for 6 hits in 8 at-bats.

"Kiermaier was too tough to get out today," the Astros skipper said in the postgame interview. "No matter what we threw him, he hit it. And he hit some good pitches, too."

Kevin Kiermaier singled in the 1st, tripled in the 2nd, flied out in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, flied out in the 6th, singled in the 8th, hit a three-run home run off Trey Mancini in the 8th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.

This season Kiermaier has hit at a .267 clip with 68 RBIs, 18 home runs and 68 runs scored.
