Abreu had two home runs as the Los Angeles Angels beat the Baltimore Orioles 5-2 on Thursday night.
Advice: It was Abreu's 14th career multihomer game. The Angels are hoping this game gets Abreu going. "It's great to see the power start to appear because that's something we obviously talked about in our lineups," manager Mike Scioscia said. "We need more batter's box offense and slugging percentage and some guys are starting to get into their game and deliver and it's a big night for Bobby tonight. Hopefully he'll start doing it a little more consistently."

OF Bobby Abreu drove in four of the Angels' five runs in Thursday's game with two home runs. It was the 14th multi-home run game of Abreu's career. He has 31 RBIs in his past 30 games, including 23 in June (second only to teammate Juan Rivera in the American League).

Abreu finished Thursday's win over the Orioles with two homers and four RBI.
Recommendation: Abreu entered the night with just four home runs all season, but he does have 48 RBI, and with 17 steals and a .299 batting average, he's been anything but a fantasy disappointment despite the lack of power.
