Mendick started in right field and went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's victory over the Royals.

The right-handed hitter smashed a two-run shot off Daniel Lynch in what was a blowout from the first inning on. This was his first appearance in the outfield, as manager Tony La Russa navigates injuries to Eloy Jimenez (pectoral), Luis Robert (hip) and Adam Engel (hamstring). It was the first homer for Mendick and he is now slashing .350/.500/.500 in his small sample.
