Dodgers Hitting Coaches Tweaked Something With Alex Call That Led to Breakout
Briefly

Alex Call struggled after joining the Dodgers, batting .174 with six strikeouts in his first 13 games following a .274 average through 72 games with Washington. He went 4-for-5 with a home run and two RBIs after implementing hitting-coach adjustments over the last two days and felt a noticeable difference in his swing. Call chases pitches outside the zone just 18.6 percent of the time (97th percentile) and has a 17.4 percent swing-and-miss rate (85th percentile). His defense rates well with 2 Outs Above Average (76th percentile) and an arm in the 80th percentile, providing outfield depth.
I did get a few tips from the hitting coaches that I've put into practice really in the last two days, just to help put me in a better position,
... I could feel a difference from kind of what I had been doing to what I was doing tonight. Hopefully, we can just keep riding that.
