Margot's season slash line still sits at a modest .248/.297/.398, but with 41 RBI, he's well on his way to eclipsing the career-best 51 he posted in 2018.

Impact Margot extended his hitting streak to three games with Friday's single while also stealing a base for the second consecutive night.

Red Sox bid for combined no-hitter vs Rays ends in 8th

Kevin Kiermaier doubled off reliever Darwinzon Hernández with one out in the eighth inning for Tampa Bay’s first hit against the Boston Red Sox

JUNE 25, 2021 • Associated Press

Rests after five straight starts Margot is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Red Sox, Adam Berry of MLB.com reports.

Impact Though Kevin Kiermaier will get the starting nod over him in the series finale, Margot appears to be encroaching on Kiermaier's role as Tampa Bay's No. 3 outfielder behind Randy Arozarena and Austin Meadows. While the Rays value Kiermaier for his defense in center, he's been far less productive as a hitter than Margot, who drew starts in each of the previous five games. Kiermaier is holding down a career-low .585 OPS and is striking out at a career-high 30.2 percent clip, a far cry from Margot's marks in both categories (.676 OPS, 16.2 K%).

Margot has demonstrated some welcome pop during that stretch, as he's belted a pair of doubles overall and added a solo home run.

Impact Margot was productive out of the top of the order, reaching safely for the eighth consecutive start in the process. The veteran outfielder's .240/.281/.387 season slash line has plenty of room for improvement, but his solid .269 average with runners in scoring position has helped lead to 35 RBI over 217 plate appearances.
