Three doubles in win
Jung went 3-for-5 with three doubles and one RBI in Friday's 5-0 win over the Mariners.
Análise
Jung was back to seventh in the batting order Friday, but that didn't cool off his bat. He has hit at least one double in five of his last six games, adding five RBI in that span. The third baseman has four multi-hit efforts over his last nine games. Jung is now hitting .290 on the year with a .795 OPS, one home run, six RBI, six runs scored, seven doubles and no stolen bases over 17 contests.

Moves up order
Jung batted fourth and went 3-for-5 with a double, a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Thursday's 9-6 win over the Athletics.
Análise
Jung had a two-run home run in the seventh inning and scored the go-ahead run in the ninth. He's slowly inched up the batting order since returning from a two-game absence attributed to being banged up. In his seven games back, Jung batted ninth, then eighth, then sixth before hitting cleanup. He had four hard-hit balls Thursday and lives in the 80th percentile (50 percent) in that category early this year. Putting him higher in the order could lead to more RBI opportunities; Jung entered Thursday with the just three runs driven in over 15 games played.

Extends hit streak
Jung went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Monday's 8-1 win over the Athletics.
Análise
Jung extended a hit streak to five games with an eighth-inning double that drove in the Rangers' final two runs. A rocky start to the season has given way to modest production since Jung's return from a two-game absence due to an undisclosed injury. Since rejoining the starting nine, Jung is 5-for-13 with two doubles, two RBI and three runs over the last four contests.
