The part I find weird is that he's on a 23 game hitting streak! Really? Man, what was he hitting before that?

(Must have had an "Adam Dunn" like avg).

Dan Uggla said, "This is an awesome organization and to have some kind of record with this organization is really special."

Uggla went 3-for-5. It was his ninth multihit game during the longest hitting streak in the majors this season. He is batting .224 overall this year.

Earlier in the week I saw the Yankees beat the Angles 6-5 with all runs scoring on homeruns. I thought it was odd for a relatively high-scoring game to have that characteristic. Today I saw this scoring summary!

Aren't they calling this the year of the pitcher?
