Shhh, don’t tell opposing teams, but they might want to yank their starters from the game before Domingo Santana comes up for the third time.
The Milwaukee Brewers right fielder is enjoying a career year so far in 2017, and there are still plenty of games to be played.
In his 60 games (entering Tuesday’s doubleheader), Santana is hitting .281 with a .377 on-base percentage and .493 slugging percentage, all of which would be career highs. He also has 36 runs and 34 RBI — also career bests — and 11 home runs, which ties his single-season high.
