Showcases power in loss Riley went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, two doubles and a strikeout in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Phillies.

Impact Riley had totaled just one extra-base hit in his six games following the All-Star break, but he's been hot across the last three contests, as he's gone 6-for-13 with two homers, three doubles, three runs and three RBI. The 24-year-old was a bright spot in Atlanta's lineup Sunday since the team generated only one hit outside of the third baseman's production.

Socks two-run shot in rout Riley went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Saturday's win over the Phillies.

Impact Riley snapped a six-game homer drought with a two-run shot in the eighth inning when the game was already decided, but the noteworthy thing about the long ball is that he blasted that rocket off shortstop Ronald Torreyes, who pitched the eighth when the game was all but over. It was Riley's 16th long ball of the campaign and he has gone yard three times already this month.

For the year, Riley is slashing .279/.362/.478 with 15 homers, 44 RBI, 43 runs scored and a 36:91 BB:K over 359 plate appearances.

Busts out with three hits and RBI Riley finished 3-for-6 with three RBI and a run scored Wednesday in Atlanta's 20-2 win over the Mets.

Impact Riley has been in a bit of a power drought of late with only one home run and two doubles over his final 16 games of June, but he at least closed the month on a four-game hitting streak while lifting his average to .279 on the season. The 24-year-old managed a .232 average over his first two years in the majors, so he's been one of the more pleasant surprises in that category in 2021. Riley's .271 expected batting average suggests he shouldn't be in line for major regression as the season unfolds.
