For someone who has hit more home runs than anyone in MLB over the past three seasons, Khris Davis may be the West Coast’s best-kept secret.
But a few of his loud swings Wednesday night in the AL wild-card game at Yankee Stadium could put Davis on the big stage for everyone else to recognize what his teammates already know.
“He gets a lot of credit from us,” A’s manager Bob Melvin said Tuesday. “I mean, he’s an MVP.”
Davis’ 48 home runs and 123 RBIs this season would seem to agree. But it’s not anything new.
