RF Brennan Boesch had a pair of hits and continues his resurgence at the plate since being dropped out of the No. 2 spot in the batting order. He had a 12-game hitting streak ended and now has hit safely in two straight after that one-game hiccup. Boesche is batting sixth now, instead of eighth. He's also hitting better than .300 on the road and under .200 at home.

Boesch went 2-for-4 in Saturday's loss to Detroit and extended his hitting streak to 12 games.
Recommendation: After dismal April, Boesch was dropped in the Tigers' batting order a couple of weeks ago. With a .341/.396/.455 line including a homer, three RBI and a 3:6 BB:K during his streak, Boesch is making a case to move back up in the lineup should Andy Dirks struggle to produce as the Tigers' primary No. 2 hitter.
