With Kansas City trailing by three runs in the ninth inning, Dozier did what he could to attempt to spark a rally. He got aboard with a single, stole second and scored on a Michael Taylor groundout, but that only cut the deficit to two runs. This was just Dozier's second steal in four attempts this season, as the 29-year-old doesn't represent much of a speed threat. He's added an unusually low .197/.274/.361 slash line with eight home runs, 30 RBI and 32 runs scored through 329 plate appearances. The utility man has been hampered by a career-low .254 BABIP.
