McCutchen went 3-for-5 with a three-run homer and three runs scored during Sunday's win over the Mets.

The ninth-inning homer just padded Pittsburgh's lead, but it was a welcome blast for the outfielder's fantasy owners. McCutchen is riding an 11-for-27 stretch at the plate with three homers, eight RBI and nine runs through his past eight games, pushing him up to a .232/.313/.419 slash line for the season. It's worth noting that he's batted sixth in each of those eight contests, so perhaps the shift down the lineup is helping to kick-start his bat.
