Cecchini accounted for half of the hits in the shutout. Herrera struck out three times in four at-bats. Do we have to continue to mention Rivera or just assume he gets two hits every night?

What are we to make of mazzilli at this point?
I called him a non-prospect on the podcast last month and he has hit ever since! He has shown little to no even gap power. He has played a good second base but just hasn’t shown anything with the bat the last two years. Maybe he fixed something mechanically recently but color me skeptical.
