INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - After seeing inconsistent playing time throughout the first few months of the season, Jared Oliva has really hit his stride in August and September.
In his 26 games over the last two months, Oliva is hitting .347 with nine doubles, a triple and three home runs.
“I think a lot of [the success] has been the work from early in the season,” Oliva said. “It was kind of just slow developing. Obviously, getting more opportunity to play has definitely been a big factor, too. Honestly, it’s just been a lot of the work we’ve been putting in in the cage for previous months and has just shown up.
