Ty France - Mired in significant slumpFrance is hitting .032 (1-for-31) with five walks, one hit-by-pitch and two runs over his last nine games.ImpactThe abysmal stretch has lowered France's season average from .325 to .246, and although his on-base percentage still sits at an impressive .351 thanks in large part to the walks, his slugging percentage has also seen a 135-point drop to .395. France has struck out at a 24.1 percent clip during that span, but the instances in which he's actually made contact that have been just as much a culprit -- the 26-year-old sports just a 4.5 percent line-drive rate and 18.2 percent hard-contact rate in the sample.
