Ahmed went 1-for-3 with a triple and a run scored Sunday against the Cubs. Ahmed has hits in three straight games and is batting .450 over his last 20 at-bats. His season line is still a weak .216/.281/.279, but it is moving toward respectability. While the hits are starting to drop, Ahmed has not drawn a walk since May 12, a trend will need to change if he is to sustain longer term success against major league pitchers, since he doesn't offer much power to keep them honest.
