O'Hearn went 2-for-4 with a grand slam in Tuesday's victory over the Brewers.
O'Hearn electrified the crowd Tuesday with a first-inning grand slam off Bruce Zimmermann to put the Padres on top early. After a rough start to September, the slugger has locked back in, going 10-for-20 with eight RBI and a pair of extra-base hits across his past five games. While his post-deadline production has dipped to a .711 OPS since he left the Orioles, O'Hearn's overall season has been strong, with a .276/.362/.435 line, 20 doubles, 17 homers and 62 RBI across 140 games.

Padres' Ryan O'Hearn: Trio of RBI in three-hit attack
Rotowire
O'Hearn went 3-for-4 with a double and three RBI in Saturday's 7-3 win over the White Sox.
It was the fourth three-RBI effort of the season by O'Hearn, who also knocked at least three hits for the seventh time in 2025. The All-Star slugger has found himself in quite the tailspin at the plate -- he has a .529 OPS in September -- though he doesn't appear to be in immediate danger of losing action as the designated hitter. Gavin Sheets, who's O'Hearn's main threat to playing time, has a .589 OPS this month.

Orioles' Ryan O'Hearn: Doubles, plates two in defeat
Rotowire
O'Hearn went 1-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a walk in Tuesday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Mets.
It was O'Hearn's first multi-RBI effort since June 11, and he's now logged at least one hit in six of his last eight outings. The All-Star slugger has cooled off significantly following an excellent start to the season, during which he had a .986 OPS as of May 27, but he should remain locked into the strong side of a platoon at first base with Coby Mayo while Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) is on the shelf. Over his last 124 plate appearances (32 games), O'Hearn is slashing just .208/.306/.321 with two home runs, six doubles, 11 RBI and 14 runs scored.
