Shortly after the All Star break, Volpe had a great game. Two home runs and four RBIs. It was a turning point!
In the small-sample-size three games since?
- 1-for-10 with two big errors.
Including the outlier, this is Volpe's July:
- 65 at-bats. 9 hits, .138 BA, 3 HR, 9 RBIs, 7 runs, 1 walk.
One walk in July!
Through July 22!
The only explanation I have is the most straightforward explanation. Opposing pitchers know he can't hit, so they refuse to walk him. Like, the mirror image of an intentional walk.
