Bauers went 1-for-2 with a home run, three walks, two RBI and three runs scored in Sunday's 12-8 loss to the Reds.
Bauers reached base in four of five plate appearances, highlighted by a two-run blast in the fourth inning. It was a much-needed effort for the 30-year-old, who received a breather Saturday after going just 1-for-12 in his first four September contests. On the season, he's slashing .270/.396/.493 with 24 homers, 78 RBI, 82 runs scored and 10 steals across 518 plate appearances.
