Dexter Fowler has nine hits in 16 at-bats -- including two doubles and three triples -- since adding a leg kick to his swing. "I was in the second group of early BP and (hitting coach Carney Lansford) said, 'Hey, try this,' so I tried it," Fowler said. "It's kind of gone on from there. Spilly (Ryan Spilborghs ) was joking with me. He said, 'I've been doing a leg kick for four years and you just pick it up and start raking?'" We're in favor of whatever works for Fowler, as he had been underperforming and even spent time in the minors before this hot streak. He'll continue to hit leadoff and play center field while Carlos Gonzalez is out.
