Extends hit streak to five games Taveras went 2-for-2 with a walk and a run scored in Saturday's 4-3 win over Tampa Bay. Impact Taveras was on base when Marcus Semien belted a two-run, game-winning home run in the bottom of the seventh inning. He had earlier singled to extend a hit streak to five games (7-for-16) and has hit safely in his last eight starts (11-for-26). Following a modest breakout season in 2023, Taveras has mostly disappointed in 2024 (.232 average, .643 OPS), although his speed (10 steals, four consecutive MLB seasons with double-digit thefts) holds fantasy relevance.
