Marlins outfielder Giancarlo Stanton is showing signs of breaking out of a slump, as he hit safely for the fourth game in a row Saturday against the Mets.
Stanton had just one hit in the game, but he made it count, sparking a sixth-inning rally with a two-run homer to right field. He ultimately finished the game 1 for 5, lowering his batting average to .278.
Stanton has seen his average fall from .329 over the last week, but is still hitting .278/.352/.567 with seven home runs and a major-league leading 29 RBI in 24 games.
