Writer's Note: The daily selections of the three Heroes and three Goats are based solely on the top three and bottom three WPA scores for the game. The selections are not based on my subjective opinion.
THE THREE HEROES:
- Superhero - Anthony Rizzo (.146). His performance at the top of the WPA charts this season is starting to get scary. Good scary, but still scary.
- Hero - Miguel Montero (.063). Maybe his issue was just with Welington Castillo playing for the Mariners. Now that Castillo's with the Diamondbacks, perhaps the funk is over.
- Sidekick - Travis Wood (.052). Pitched a very solid fifth and sixth inning. Unfortunately, the six innings that surrounded these two were much less solid.
THE THREE GOATS:
- Billy Goat - Tsuyoshi Wada (-.332). Setting a new career low for a game score (22) isn't the kind of career mark you normally want to shoot for.
- Goat - Justin Grimm (-.078). Got the first two outs of the seventh without incident, but the third out proved to be much harder to accomplish.
- Kid - Addison Russell (-.065). Knowing him, this probably means that his next podium appearance will be with the Heroes.
RANKINGS THROUGH GAME 53 ("x" indicates player not on active roster):
It's more of the same at the top of the plus/minus chart as Rizzo extends his lead to 25 points over Kris Bryant.
