Braves' Michael Harris: Logs three hits, steals base
Rotowire
Harris went 3-for-5 with three singles and a stolen base during Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Royals.
Harris generated his fifth three-hit performance in the last eight games and swiped his 10th stolen base of the campaign. During that eight-game stretch, Harris is 17-for-35 (.486) with three home runs, nine runs and seven RBI.
Harris went 3-for-4 with a double, a home run, two run scored and two RBI in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Mets.
The 23-year-old outfielder rapped an RBI double in the third inning to get Atlanta on the board before taking Luis Severino deep for a solo shot in the fourth. Harris has been on fire to close out September, slashing .417/.438/.850 over the last 13 games with seven homers, 13 RBI and 16 runs, and he's a big reason why his team is still even in the wild-card picture in the final week of the regular season.

Rotowire
Harris went 1-for-5 with a solo home run during Wednesday's 7-1 win over the Reds.
Harris lifted his 13th home run of the campaign Wednesday, tagging Justin Wilson for a solo shot in the eighth inning. Harris has gone yard in back-to-back games and has four homers in his last eight outings. During that stretch, Harris is 11-for-36 (.306) with seven runs, six RBI and a stolen base.
Harris went 3-for-6 with two solo home runs in Tuesday's 12-0 win over the Nationals.
He took MacKenzie Gore deep in the fourth inning before launching another homer off Ildemaro Vargas in the ninth. Harris is still struggling to find a groove at the plate, and time is running out on the regular season -- since returning from a hamstring injury in mid-August, he's slashing just .234/.259/.421 through 26 games, but he does have six of his 11 homers on the year during that stretch.
