Tony Wolters Jumps Back On The Horse
5 years agoColorado Rockies catcher Tony Wolters struggled through July just like the rest of his team, but he got started well in August by knocking a pair of hits and driving in a run in the first game of the month. The Rockies set a franchise record for worst month ever when they went 9-16 in July, and the drag seemed to affect the whole team. Wolters, who is in the middle of a breakout offensive season (relatively), suffered as well, hitting just .220 during the no-good month. The catcher who has never finished a season with a batting average above .259 is still sitting pretty at .280 for this year, but he still needs three more home runs to set a new career-high in that department. Maybe the back end of summer can get it done for him.
