Ahmed extended his hitting streak to four games by going 1-for-3 with an RBI on Saturday against the Phillies. Nevertheless, he will take a seat on the bench Sunday. Ahmed's season line is still a miserable .165/.248/.176, but he he been slightly better lately with a .238 average in his last 21 at-bats. While he is having some bad luck with a .234 BABIP, he is striking out in 26.5 percent of his plate appearances, which makes it very difficult for him to use his speed to get on base.
