Ortiz went 2-for-5 with a three-run homer in Tuesday's 5-2 win at Baltimore.
Analysis:
Ortiz's second home run in as many days provided the margin of victory in this one. Manager John Farrell's decision to give him a day off Sunday preceding this hot streak is looking like a brilliant decision. The designated hitter is slashing .318/.403/.634 in what has been an incredible campaign.
