Maikel Franco Continues Torrid July
6 years agoNobody on the Philadelphia Phillies has gotten off to a better start in July than third baseman Maikel Franco. Perhaps motivated by rumors that the Phillies were seeking someone at his position before the trade deadline, the 25-year-old is hitting .409 this month. The hot streak reached new heights on Tuesday against the New York Mets, as Franco drilled a three-run home run in the second inning as part of a four-RBI night. While he continues to hit near the bottom of the order, this current form will surely bump him up in the lineup.
