Whit Merrifield Drives In Three In Friday's Win
4 years agoKansas City Royals second baseman Whit Merrifield helped lead the team to an 8-3 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Friday. He went 2-for-5 with a double, three RBI and two runs. This was Merrifield's first multi-hit game since May 15. He also hadn't recorded a single RBI since May 16 before this game. Apart from his six stolen bases, 14 runs and strong plate discipline this month, it's been a rough May for Merrifield. He's slashing just .231/.324/.341 across the month with only one home run. He's a career .292 hitter and he's currently hitting just .253 this year. Expect his batting average to increase soon and he should bring some better power numbers along with it.
