The Glass Is Calf Empty

Batting 5th, Danny Valencia was 3-5 with 1 HR (his 9th), 3 RBIs, and 2 runs scored against the Brewers. This was Valencia's first 3-hit game since May 21.

Batting leadoff, Ian Kinsler was 1-5 with 1 HR (his 12th), 1 RBI, 1 run scored, and 1 SB (his 16th) against the Marlins. Kinsler has 4 HRs in his last 5 games.

Batting 3rd, Ryan Braun was 1-4 with 1 double (his 19th) and 1 RBI against the Twins. Braun left the game with a left calf strain. He will be reexamined tomorrow morning and almost certainly will not be playing in the rubber match.
