EDGE Analysis
Ibanez was bumped up to the No. 2 spot in the order and responded with a good game, which included his 11th home run of the season. The utility player has now batted second 10 times this year, though he's primarily been lower in the order, most frequently appearing in the eighth spot. Ibanez may stay put for the time being after the strong effort, however.
