Notches first big-league steal Bailey went 1-for-5 with one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 6-4 win over the Pirates.

Impact Bailey was effective on both sides of the stolen-base equation Friday, as he also threw out Tucupita Marcano in the third inning. Bailey's theft was the first in his career, and as a catcher, he shouldn't be expected to run frequently. He's also slashing .290/.320/.483 with five home runs, 27 RBI, 15 runs scored, 11 doubles and a triple over 41 contests, though he's hitting a light .167 in July.

Patrick Bailey CRUSHES a go-ahead, three-run homer to give the Giants the lead over the Mets

JULY 1, 2023 • FOX SPORTS

Mashes fourth homer Bailey went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Friday's 8-5 win over the Diamondbacks.

Impact Bailey is off to a good start since getting called up to the big leagues on May 19. The 2020 first-round pick is slashing .330/.361/.560 so far, and is quickly proving to be a worthy fantasy option. His four total homers aren't eye-popping, but his contact hitting has been excellent, as he has hits in 10 of his 15 contests.

Swats third homer Bailey went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's 11-3 win over the Cardinals.

Impact He launched a solo shot off Genesis Cabrera in the sixth inning, going back-to-back with Mike Yastrzemski to blow open what had been a 6-2 game. Bailey continues to solidify his hold on the Giants' starting job behind the plate, and since his promotion in mid-May he's slashing .323/.353/.585 through 70 plate appearances with three homers and 16 RBI. His 3:19 BB:K and .419 BABIP suggest there will be regression coming for his batting average, however -- which wouldn't be a shocking development for a 24-year-old who batted .225 in High-A only last year.
