First of all, I would like to apologize for the eye-rolling nature of the title's pun. Anyways, Monday was a day with not too many games, but that didn't mean we were short on offensive explosions, as there were multiple double-digit run games. Perhaps the best performance of the night goes to the incredible Eric Thames who went 2-3, 2 HR, 3 R, 3 RBI. The dude just. keeps. hitting. It's insane. His stat lines are absurd, like his .910 SLG, .537 ISO, and his 52.6% HR/FB rate. Look, the guy showed incredible power in Korea, and he obviously figured something out, as evidenced by his 53.1% hard hit rate. The home runs will slow down, obviously, but this guy looks like he's going to make the people who took a chance on him very happy.

Let's take a look at some of the other performances from Monday:
