David Ortiz is quietly getting back to hitting the ball on a consistent basis. His OBP is around .380. A couple of hits plus a few walks & before you know it he is on base 4 out of 5 times a game. The way Youk & Bay are hitting behind him makes for lots of running the bases & scoring runs for the big man.
Big Papi is still the centerpiece of the Sox offense. When he is going good everyone before & after him get better pitches to hit. Just ask Pedroia, Youk & Bay.
Look for #34 to have a huge September.
