Bat coming alive Kelly went 2-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Saturday's 9-2 win over Colorado.
Impact Perhaps as a reward for a four-game hit streak, Kelly was moved to the top of the order Saturday and extended the streak to five with a leadoff double. He came around to score the first of three runs Arizona plated during the opening frame. The catcher has hit safely in eight of the last nine contests, going 10-for-30 (.333) with three doubles, three home runs, eight RBI and eight runs scored during that stretch. This must be a great relief for Kelly, who suffered through a prolonged slump to start the season and was batting .098 as recently as June 12. It's unclear if he'll be taking over the leadoff spot permanently against left-handers, which lately has been filled by Jordan Luplow.

Plates all three Arizona runs Kelly went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Thursday's loss to the Rockies.
Impact Kelly twice tied the score in the game, first with a two-run blast in the second inning and later with a run-scoring single in the fourth. This was just his third multi-hit contest over 37 games this season, and the three RBI were the most he has tallied in a single contest on the campaign. Kelly has had a miserable offensive season with a .155/.202/.273 slash line, but he's started to play better of late with at least one hit in six of his past seven games.
