Jay Bruce entered play tonight on one of his typical cold streaks. As we’ve learned over time, though, those cold streaks usually precede a towering mountain of eventual production, and a homestand at GABP seems to have been just what Jay needed.
After having hit just 4 for 22 with no dingers since the calendar last turned, May Bruce burst out on Monday, as he clubbed a 2-run dinger, walked twice, and looked like the exact kind of guy who’s about to clobber the snot out of the ball for the next three weeks that we get a chance to see every now and then.
