In his last two games, Bryce Harper went 3 for 6 with three home runs and five walks, reaching base eight times in a row at one point. He has yet to strike out this season, making him the top Two True Outcomes hitter of the season:
Player | Plate App. | Home Runs | Walks | Two True Outcomes Pct. |
Bryce Harper | 20 | 3 | 6 | 0.450 |
Mitch Haniger | 11 | 2 | 2 | 0.364 |
Eric Thames | 11 | 1 | 3 | 0.364 |
Adrian Gonzalez | 10 | 0 | 3 | 0.300 |
Elvis Andrus | 21 | 1 | 3 | 0.190 |
Colin Moran | 13 | 1 | 1 | 0.154 |
Jose Ramirez | 17 | 0 | 2 | 0.118 |
Lorenzo Cain | 19 | 1 | 1 | 0.105 |
Alcides Escobar | 11 | 0 | 1 | 0.091 |
Joc Pederson | 14 | 0 | 1 | 0.071 |
Whit Merrifield | 14 | 0 | 1 | 0.071 |
Jonathan Lucroy | 16 | 0 | 0 | 0.000 |
Harper is not letting fielders interfere with his balls in play. The Braves did walk him four times last night, but it was not like the time the Cubs walked him four times in a game two years ago. The Braves appeared to be trying to get Harper to chase good pitches, but Harper would not go after them. The one mistake landed deep in centerfield.
I find Jose Ramirez’s inclusion on the list impressive. Ramirez has yet to collect a hit in 2018, after posting BABIPs of .333 and .319 in 2016-2017 receptively. He’s making contact again, but the ball is not falling for hits.
