Yankees' Jacoby Ellsbury: Homers in win over Mariners
Ellsbury homered, scored twice and drove in two runs in a win Tuesday over the Mariners.
Analysis:
Ellsbury has now homered twice in his past five games. This power surge follows a stretch in which he went 116 at-bats without a home run and hit just .224/.272/.267 from July 15 through August 16. Unfortunately, that has been the Ellsbury who has shown up for most of the year; he owns just a .262/.321/.368 batting line and six home runs on the season.
