Saturday's MLB stars of the night: Four times the fun

Saturday's slate of baseball was full of stellar offensive performances. It featured a four-home-run game as well as multiple walk-off winners. 

All three members of Saturday's list are making their first appearance and will almost certainly be here again at some point during this season. 

Here are three stars from Saturday's MLB action.

Eugenio Suarez, 3B, Arizona Diamondbacks

Suarez is undoubtedly the star of the night with his four home runs against the Atlanta Braves. Suarez became the 19th player all-time and first since 2017 to have four home runs in a game.

Unfortunately for Arizona, it was all for not, and they lost the game 8-7 in 10 innings. 

The Diamondbacks are the first team to lose the game when one of their players hits four home runs since 1986 when the Atlanta Braves did it during Bob Horner's four homer game.

Nolan Arenado, 3B, St. Louis Cardinals

Arenado didn't have four home runs on Saturday, but he did have one, and it came in an enormous spot for the Cardinals.

After allowing two runs to the Milwaukee Brewers in the top of the ninth inning, Arenado launched the sixth walk-off home run of his career, and St. Louis defeated Milwaukee 6-5.

The Cardinals improved to 12-15 on the season with the win, and the swing from Arenado could be one that jumpstarts the season for St. Louis.

Patrick Bailey, C, San Francisco Giants

Unlike the two previously mentioned players, Bailey did not club a homer on Saturday, but he did, however, send the San Francisco fans home happy.

Bailey was called on to pinch-hit in a tied game in the bottom of the ninth inning against the Texas Rangers. Bailey delivered the most clutch hit of the season for the Giants with a walk-off single down the first base line.

It is the second walk-off of Bailey's career and the first since his walk-off homer in April of the 2024 season. The Giants improved to 18-10 with the win and continue to look like one of the best teams in all of baseball.
