Since Ozzie Albies was demoted to Double-A Mississippi, to play second base alongside shortstop Dansby Swason, Albies has found his stroke at the plate again.
And Swanson’s been even hotter.
In the four games they’ve played together (before Tuesday night), they are 16-for-34 (.471), with eight runs, one double, one triple and two RBIs.
In five games, Albies is 9-for-21 (.429) with four runs and two doubles. In the same time period, Swanson has played in four games, and he is 9-for-17 (.529) with four runs, a triple and two RBIs.
In each of their four games together, Albies batted leadoff and Swanson third.
Before Albies was promoted June 30, he hit .248 with two homers and 20 RBIs in 56 games. He had a .307 on-base percentage and struck out 39 times.
