Hill was brought to Milwaukee in part of the trade which sent Jean Segura to the Diamondbacks. In that time Hill has provided veteran mentor-ship to the younger players on the roster, but as struggled at the plate.
This lead to some questioning why the Milwaukee Brewers still had Hill on the roster, despite the fact that the players who could replace him AREN’T that much better for Milwaukee.
On Saturday however, Hill’s bat came to life as he homered in three straight at bats, including a grand slam in the seventh.
Hill followed this with a Sunday against the Reds where he went 1-for-4 bringing his current hitting streak to eight straight games as of this writing.
