Thomas went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and two total runs scored in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Rays.
Thomas has found his swing after a brutal August, going 18-for-49 (.367) through 13 contests in September. He's added four homers, six doubles and a stolen base in that span. The hot stretch has helped Thomas secure a starting role in center field, which had previously been a revolving door for the Guardians. He earned some extra job security when Tyler Freeman was optioned to Triple-A Columbus before Saturday's game. Thomas is now at a .247/.319/.405 slash line with 12 homers, 58 RBI, 60 runs scored and 32 steals through 118 contests between Cleveland and Washington this year.
