Anthony Rendon (3B, WSH) became the unlikeliest of heroes to key the team to a 23-5 victory over the Mets Sunday, a beatdown that takes focus off the fact that Washington lost the series with defeats Friday and Saturday. Throughout the weekend series, Rendon went 7-12, 6 R, 3 HR, 10 RBI, 2 BB, 3K, and the trio of homers and a 6-6 tear all happened Sunday. The six-plosion also included a double, but beware of Rendon as a fantasy owner. This is a fun and entertaining stat line, but Rendon has been the model of mediocrity in 2017. Going into yesterday's game, he had a batting average of just .226 with zero HRs and just five RBI on the year. If we're being honest, Rendon's owners were probably relieved he did something noteworthy at long last but I don't expect him to suddenly be a juggernaut after an otherwise lukewarm April.
Let’s take a look at what else happened hitting-wise around the league:
