Soto went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run Wednesday in a 4-3 extra-inning win against Kansas City.
The Yankees were being shut out by Cole Ragans until Soto swatted a go-ahead two-run shot to right field in the sixth inning. The blast was the star outfielder's 39th of the season and pushed him to the 100-RBI mark. It's the third time in his career that Soto has reached the latter total, and with one more homer he'll have his first 40-homer campaign.
Soto went 3-for-3 with a two-run home run, a double and a walk in Wednesday's 10-6 loss to the Rangers.
Soto had gone eight games without a homer entering Wednesday, his longest drought since June 4-14. The outfielder's blast got the Yankees on the board in the fifth inning, but they weren't able to overcome an early deficit after the Rangers padded their lead in the late innings. Soto is up to 38 homers, 98 RBI, 112 runs scored, five stolen bases and 28 doubles while slashing .295/.423/.592 through 136 contests.
Soto went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional RBI and a walk in Sunday's 10-3 win over the Rockies.
Soto knocked in a run with an RBI single in the second inning, then started a sequence of back-to-back-to-back homers in the seventh. While Soto is hitting just .182 (6-for-33) over his last nine games, three of those hits have been homers. The star outfielder has a .299/.429/.606 slash line, 37 long balls, 95 RBI, 108 runs scored and five stolen bases over 127 contests this year.
