Rockies' Charlie Blackmon is in a slump — and fighting to get back on track

Charlie Blackmon is in a slump. When asked about his funk at the plate, Blackmon crisply replied, “I just don't think I'm getting any hits right now.” With Giants lefty Kyle Harrison starting Tuesday night, Blackmon was not in the starting lineup for the second consecutive game. Blackmon, who turns 38 on July 1, had a solid spring training and opened the season hot, slashing .333/.404/.571 through his first 11 games.
