He was even better at the plate, going 2-for-3 with three stolen bases, four runs, and two doubles. Those two doubles gave him a new career-high.
In other batting news, Drew Otteson was a standout: he went 4-for-5 with two stolen bases, three runs, and two RBI. He is on a roll when it comes to stolen bases, as he's now snagged at least one in each of the last six games he's played. Alex Avelar also deserves some recognition as he launched his first home run of the season.
