6 years agoBoston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts finished with two doubles and two runs batted in during a win over Oakland on Monday. A two-RBI double by Bogaerts in the third was part of a six-run inning for Boston, which ultimately won them the game. Over his past eight games, the 26-year-old has nine hits, including two home runs and three doubles, while also driving in eight and scoring six times. Bogaerts has hit safely in 23 of 28 games played this season while also boasting a .202 ISO, making him one of Boston's most dangerous hitters through the team’s early-season funk. Two games remain with Oakland, where he'll face righties Aaron Brooks and Mike Fiers before a series with the White Sox over the weekend.--Steve Janik - RotoBaller
