Francisco Álvarez now has 4 go-ahead or game-tying home runs with two outs in the 6th inning or later this season.
The only rookie season with more such HR in the expansion era is Ken Griffey Jr. in 1989 with the Mariners (5).

10 Biggest Storylines to Know Ahead of the 2023 MLB Draft -
As to the best of this year's prep players, B/R's Joel Reuter tabbed outfielders Max Clark (Indiana) and Walker Jenkins (North Carolina) as the ones most likely to be first off the board.
But if it's a question of who's the most interesting high schooler of the 2023 draft class, how are we supposed to not point the spotlight at the guy known as "the American Ohtani?"
This is Bryce Eldridge, a 6'7", 223-pound 18-year-old who's fresh off putting up intimidating numbers as a senior at Madison High School in Virginia. He had a 1.06 ERA as a right-handed pitcher and a 1.716 OPS as a left-handed hitter.
There's a sense that Eldridge is more likely to be cultivated as a hitter only as opposed to a two-way player, but his mid-90s fastball isn't the only reason to believe he can handle the latter. It's what the man himself wants, as he told MLB.com's Anthony Castrovince: "I know not many people can do it. But it's something I'm super dedicated to."

Mack,
Gary's quote of the night from SNY last night, " what do we have here"? I say a future "star".
Do not remember from last year, do you do your own mock draft?
Vientos is a Long Ball Specialist.
Morabito is surging.
Ridings soon?
I did last year as I did many past drafts
