Mini-Slumps

"(T)he Marlins were kicking themselves after going a maddening 1-for-11 with runners in scoring position in this 5-3 loss at Shea Stadium.

"No one was more flummoxed against Santana than the previously scorching Dan Uggla. The Marlins' second baseman went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts against Santana and left a total of six runners on base....

"Suddenly, Mr. May is in an 0 for 7 skid that includes three K's, three groundouts to shortstop (one for a double play) and a harmless fly ball to center. Before this recent mini-downturn, Uggla was hitting .410 (32 for 78) in May with a team-record 12 homers." (SunSentinel)

MORE: 6 of Cody Ross' last 7 hits have been homers. But that's 7 hits out of his last 30 at-bats. (MLB)
