MILWAUKEE -- With four home runs in his last six games, Keon Broxton has shown signs of snapping out of a recent slump and the timing couldn't be better as the Milwaukee Brewers brought highly touted outfield prospects Brett Phillips and Lewis Brinson up for their first taste of major league action.
Whether or not those promotions impacted Broxton's recent surge (6-for-19 with a triple and four home runs) is up for debate, but manager Craig Counsell is happy to pencil the center fielder's name in the lineup Saturday when the Brewers continue their three-game series with the San Diego Padres at Miller Park.
