CF Adam Jones, the Orioles' budding star center fielder, sat out Sunday's game -- the first game he's missed all season -- with a sore right ankle. He returned to the lineup Monday, and hit a home run with two RBIs in a 2-for-4 night out of the No. 2 spot in the order.
The home run, his sixth of the season, went to the opposite field. It was a good sight from a player who came to Baltimore with a reputation for being a pull-happy free swinger.
Jones' average is up to .282 -- on a constant rise since entering June at .245. He's batting .333 (20-for-60) with two home runs and 14 RBIs in July, and .308 (8-for-26) as a No. 2 hitter. |
