Kevin Newman - Page 19 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

On base three times Thursday Newman went 2-for-3 with a walk in Thursday's 2-0 loss to Cleveland.

Impact Getting the start at second base and hitting second, Newman was a regular presence on the basepaths, but none of his teammates could bring him home. The 27-year-old has upped his batting average on the year to .292 with a nine-game hitting streak that's seen him go 15-for-36 (.417).

Heating up at plate Newman went 3-for-4 with a double and a walk in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Indians.

Impact He's slashing .378/.391/.511 in 47 plate appearances in August. Newman, who stole 16 bases last season, was thrown out in his lone attempt thus far in 2020. Still, after starting the season in a 1-for-20 funk, it seems as though the infielder has found his stroke.

Improving at plate Newman went 4-for-5 with an RBI double in an 11-5 loss to the Tigers on Saturday.

Impact He lifted his batting average to a season-high .262. Newman has batted second in the lineup nine times in 11 starts after hitting leadoff almost exclusively in the second half of 2019. The 27-year-old collected a walk-off hit -- the fifth in his short career -- in Thursday's win and appears back on track following a slow start.

Takes seat in series finale Newman is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Twins.

Impact Newman will take a seat for the second time in three days, opening up a spot at shortstop for JT Riddle. The 27-year-old went 0-for-4 in Wednesday's 5-2 loss, spelling an end to a three-game hitting streak.

Heads to bench Newman will be on the bench Tuesday against the Twins.

Impact Newman will sit for the third time in the season's first 11 games. He'd recorded just one hit in his first five contests this season but now has five hits over his last three. Erik Gonzalez will start at shortstop in his absence.

Starting to heat up Newman went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Sunday against the Cubs.

Impact Newman took Jon Lester deep in the first inning for his first home run of the season. While he's still hitting just .179 through 31 plate appearances, Newman now has back-to-back mulit-hit games. He'll look to maintain his improved results as the Pirates travel to Minnesota to take on the Twins.

Turns in another strong outing Lester allowed one earned run on four hits and a walk while striking out four across six innings Sunday against the Pirates. He did not factor into the decision.

Impact Lester got off to a shaky start, as he allowed a solo home run to Kevin Newman in the first inning. However, he settled in after and retired the final eight batters he faced to turn in his second strong outing of the season. Lester carries a 0.82 ERA into his third start of the season, though he has managed just five strikeouts across 11 innings. His next appearance is currently projected to come Friday at the Cardinals.
