Cecchini went 4-for-5 at the plate Saturday and is now 11 for his last 18, upping his average to .324 on the season.
Cecchini has moved from a defense first shortstop to one whose bat likely should play in the majors, though part of his explosion has to be discounted due to the thin air in Las Vegas. He still is manning shortstop. but the trade of Dilson Herrera to Cincinnati could result in moving Cecchini to second base to see if he can play the position.
