"Hanley Ramirez was hitting .201 with four homers and 17 RBI when Jack McKeon took over the Marlins on June 20.
But if you've only watched the Marlins over their last 11 games you might not have ever known it. Since McKeon took over, the former three-time All-Star shortsotp and batting champion has gone 15 for 39 (.385) with three homers and 12 RBI. The Marlins, meanwhile, have gone 5-5, showing signs the worst month in franchise history won't have an encore performance.
Playing his 10th game in his new role as the team's clean-up hitter Saturday, Ramirez went 3 for 5 with two homers and five RBI to break all sort of Hanley like struggles.
The multi-home run game was Ramirez's first since May 2, 2010 and gave him 11 in his career, tying Dan Uggla and Mike Lowell for the franchise lead. His five RBI were the most for him since June 25, 2009."
