Ortiz went 4-for-4 with a solo homer -- his 30th of the season -- in Wednesday's loss to the Angels. Injuries have slowed him at times in recent seasons, but the blast was Ortiz's 30th of the year, which matches his total from 2014. The big difference in production has come in the form of a reduced batting average, as Ortiz has finished each of the past three campaigns with an average north of .300, but he's hitting just .263 through 120 games in 2014.
