Impact Wendle's one hit of the night made an impact, as it plated Yandy Diaz in the fifth inning to knot the score up at 4-4. The triple was Wendle's second of August, and it snapped a modest 0-for-7 stretch that had encompassed the last three games in which he'd logged an official at-bat. The 30-year-old seems much more like himself in the batter's box than at any point during an injury-marred 2019, as he's now slashing an impressive .289/.357/.500 across his first 42 plate appearances and sports a minuscule, career-low 9.5 percent strikeout rate.
