Baltimore Orioles short stop Robert Andino continued his hot hitting this past week. He raised his average to .333 and started hitting with some power. He hit his first home run of the season Saturday against the Chicago White Sox’s and hit a double this week.
He remains hitting in the number nine spot in the lineup despite his high numbers. Despite being in the number nine spot he has become a staple in the lineup making it almost impossible for the Orioles manager Buck Showalter to take him out.
It is only a month into the season and the Orioles have seen one of the bench players step up in a major way and contributing every day to the team. The success Andino is having might just be a long once in a career hot streak but the Orioles will ride it as long as they can. Or maybe Andino has find his stride and has finally become a good Major League hitter.
