Wilmer Flores - Gets aboard four timesFlores went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 8-7 win over the Pirates.

ImpactFlores has hit safely in six straight games, and he's batting .342 with a home run, three RBI and five runs scored through 12 games in August. The 31-year-old infielder has started seven of the last 10 contests, but his playing time is likely to be a bit more limited with the Giants' infield at essentially full health. For the season, Flores has been steady with a .258/.342/.448 slash line, 16 homers, 58 RBI, 58 runs scored and 22 doubles through 421 plate appearances.

This was his fourth long ball in his last seven contests, and he's added seven RBI and six runs scored in that span. He's showing some signs of life at the plate, but he's still slashing a meager .200/.315/.457 with seven homers, 21 RBI, 14 runs scored, four doubles and a triple through 125 plate appearances.
