Cruz on Fire: 5-for-7 for Grand Rapids Sunday, May 31st , 2026 Grand Rapids center fielder Esteban Cruz could do no wrong in his team's 15-5 win over the Deltas, as he collected 5 hits. "Things were in his favor in every one of his at-bats," Deltas skipper Tyler Byrd said to the press corps after the game. "He got hitters' counts." Cruz agreed, saying that getting ahead early in the counts was "the key" to his game. "Once you get ahead, it makes it a lot easier because you get a better pitch to hit," he said. "You know the pitcher has to come in with it. And you're ready." Esteban Cruz singled in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit a two-run double in the 4th, grounded out in the 6th, singled in the 8th, singled in the 9th and flied out in the 9th.
