WILLY ADAMES NEWS

Swats homer in loss Adames went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Wednesday in a loss to the Cubs.

Impact Adames broke a 1-1 tie with a solo shot in the sixth inning. For awhile it looked like that would hold up as the game-winner, but a ninth-inning Chicago comeback turned the outcome around. The long ball was Adames' first since June 23, a span of 12 games. It also extended his modest hitting streak to six contests, during which he's batting .308 with five extra-base hits and five RBI.

Homers twice, drives in five Adames went 4-for-5 with a double, two homers and five total RBI in Friday's 7-1 win over the Guardians.

Adames entered Friday's contest with a .529 OPS, one homer and two RBI in 13 games since returning from a concussion June 7, so the offensive outburst was a welcome sight. The performance improved his season slash line to .216/.294/.398, and he now has 12 long balls, 34 RBI and 34 runs through 65 games.

Impact Adames is slated to serve as Wisconsin's designated hitter Sunday in what will be his first game action since he sustained a concussion after being struck by a line drive off the bat of teammate Brian Anderson while he was spectating in the dugout in a May 26 game against the Giants. The 27-year-old has seemingly made strong progress in his recovery over the past week and a half, and heading out on a rehab assignment marks the final hurdle he'll need to clear before being activated. Assuming Adames experiences no setbacks coming out of Sunday's contest, he'll shift his rehab assignment to Triple-A Nashville, where he's expected to make starts at shortstop Tuesday and Wednesday.
