LaMonte Wade Jr. is facing a slump for the San Francisco Giants, with a measly .461 OPS and a poor showing at the plate following a hamstring injury. In a recent game against the Rangers, Wade made several solid swings, yet each resulted in nothing more than outs. Manager Bob Melvin has moved Wade down in the batting lineup in hopes of breaking his cold streak. Despite the frustration, Wade feels comfortable at the plate and believes his luck will change soon.
With the count at 1-0, Wade sent Leiter's sinker into the right-field arcade. It was just far enough to clear the fences, but the ball veered foul.
Wade maintains confidence that the hits will arrive. I feel good at the plate. I feel comfortable, Wade said. I'm making good contact, but it's just going right at people.
