Soler went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer, a walk and an additional run scored in Friday's 6-2 victory over the Dodgers. The outfielder stretched Atlanta's lead to 5-0 with a 393-foot blast to left off Landon Knack in the second inning. The long ball broke a stretch of 49 consecutive plate appearances without a homer for Soler, as he last went deep Aug. 28 against Minnesota. The 2021 World Series MVP has struggled in his return to Atlanta. He's batting .217 (23-for-106) with six homers, 17 RBI and 17 runs scored over 34 games since joining the club at the trade deadline.
