Marcell Ozuna Extends Hit Streak To Five Games
4 years agoAtlanta Braves outfielder Marcell Ozuna recorded two hits during Friday's 13-5 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. He singled and doubled while driving in two runs and scoring once. Those base knocks extended the veteran outfielder's hit streak to five games. Ozuna was off to a slow start to the season but his recent rash of hits has moved his batting average up to .202. His home run pop has also been MIA in 2021 with just three so far in 26 games. Last season, he hit 18 homers in 60 games and posted a 179 wRC+. With his wRC+ at just 73 this season, Ozuna is perhaps feeling added pressure after signing a four-year, $65M contract.
