Zack Gelof recorded a .286 batting average, 11 home runs, 29 RBIs, 36 runs scored and eight stolen bases in his first 59 games, producing an .844 OPS. The same stretch showed several mechanical issues that have drawn attention from observers.
Performance details Gelof hit an RBI single in the sixth inning of a June 19 game against the Los Angeles Angels at Sutter Health Park. Photographs from the contest show the infielder connecting on a pitch during that at-bat.
