Royals' Eric Hosmer: Bat awakens with homers on consecutive days

Hosmer went 2-for-3 with a double, a two-run homer and a walk in a win against the Tigers on Wednesday.

Analysis:

It was a big homer, too, a ninth-inning shot that broke a 1-1 tie. Hosmer had been stone cold since the All-Star break, but he's now homered in consecutive games and driven in four runs over the last three; it looks like his bat's waking up just in time for the stretch run.
