The Milwaukee Brewers just wrapped up a 6-3 road trip in which they played the Chicago White Sox, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Texas Rangers. Each series consisted of a sweep in which the Brew Crew were on the winning side against the White Sox and Rangers. Throughout the nine games there were a few offensive players who stood out.
Three players who stood out offensively on the Milwaukee Brewers recent three city road trip.
Milwaukee Brewers stand out player #1: Tyrone Taylor
After missing significant time with an elbow issue early on in the season Tyrone Taylor is starting to find his footing at the plate. He appeared in every game on the road trip and was in the starting lineup seven times. He accumulated 26 at-bats during this stretch, posted a .348/.423/.565 slash line, and collected four runs batted in.
Milwaukee Brewers stand out player #2: Carlos Santana
Trade deadline acquisition Carlos Santana got off to a slow start with the Brewers, but on the road trip he produced 10 runs batted in. He hit home runs in back-to-back games on two occasions while on the road and delivered in clutch situations. His batting average was just .200 over these nine games, but if he continues to slug the ball and produce runs then the Brewers should have a good shot at continuing to win games.
Milwaukee Brewers stand out player #3: Willy Adames
Shortstop Willy Adames has been applying a lot of pressure on himself this season. Manager Craig Counsell gave him a two day rest prior to the road trip and he now appears recharged. During the last nine games he posted a .324/.395/.411 slash line in which he collected 11 hits and drove in six batters. In Texas he had a three hit game during the series opener and a four hit game on Saturday.
The Brewers next series will be at home against the AL Central leading Minnesota Twins. They then have a weekend series against the San Diego Padres before hitting the road again to take on the Chicago Cubs.
