July 7, 2025 8:15 AM : Hays went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 3-1 loss to Philadelphia.
Analysis: Only Hays could solve Phillies right-hander Zack Wheeler, who allowed just the one hit and did not walk a batter. Hays is batting .206 (7-for-34) over nine games since coming off the injured list June 27, but it's been an impactful .206 with three doubles, one triple, two home runs and six RBI.
