Matt Shaw, your table is ready
Shaw worked on tweaking his batting stance again over the All-Star break and wound up having a fantastic week. Over the six games against the Royals and White Sox, Shaw batted .400/.429/.950 (8-for-20) with two doubles, three home runs, eight RBI, two stolen bases and five runs scored.
