Gomes went 2-for-4 with three RBI and one run in Friday's win over the Twins.

The 29-year-old catcher entered Friday hitting just .190 with a pair of RBI over the club's previous 13 games. Gomes' effort versus the Twins pushed his average this month to .273 while more than doubling his RBI total for June. He had a rough first month of the season (.176/.276/.275), but bounced back with a strong May (.279/.362/.525) before falling into his recent slump. Gomes is on pace to play more than 110 games (for just the second time in his career) this year, and that volume is an attractive attribute among backstops.
