Alvarez went 2-for-5 with two solo shots in Friday's victory over the White Sox.
Alvarez now has five homers in his last three games. He homered twice against the Rangers on Tuesday and once Thursday, before upping his total to 18 on Friday. The 29-year-old has three multi-homer games this season in his first go-round with Baltimore. Although Alvarez hasn't received as much playing time as he did in Pittsburgh, he's been much more productive in his at-bats. The DH is posting career-high marks in batting average (.259), slugging percentage (.517), OPS (.832) and ISO (.258). Per at-bat, Alvarez is one of the best power hitters in the game.
