Rougned Odor has slowly but surely improved at the plate. He hit his fifth homer in Saturday's 7-2 loss and went 2 for 4.
Four of his homers have come since June 20. He's batting over .260 since May 27 with 33 hits and 13 walks in 34 games. He has 35 strikeouts in that stretch (about one a game) but his batting average has increased to .234 from .186 on May 26.
He also doubled in the fourth to give him his first multiple extra-base game in 2018. He struck out looking in the eighth, but after falling behind 0-2 stretched it to an 11-pitch at-bat.
