Orioles' Chris Davis: Returns with bang after brief absence
Davis went 2-for-3 with his 13th homer and three RBI against the Blue Jays on Thursday.
Analysis:
After one game out of the lineup due to a thumb injury, Davis got right back in there and looked none the worse for wear. That said, the slugger's continuing to live up to the every-other-year reputation he's established over the last few seasons -- his homer totals and batting averages have both yo-yoed for years, and this is shaping up to be one of the down campaigns. After he hit .262 with 47 homers last year, he's at .220 with a homer pace in the mid-30s this year, which has to be particularly frustrating for his keeper-league owners.
