## Resource

Baseball’s summer surge is powered by hitters who clawed back from April slumps—Nick Kurtz’s 48-game on-base streak, Bobby Witt Jr.’s explosive power, Julio Rodríguez’s newfound consistency, and Rafael Devers finally hitting like himself. Even bench-sitters like Alec Bohm and rookies like Samuel Basallo are crushing it. Gavin Sheets’ birthday homer sparked a monster run, and Spencer Torkelson’s barrel rate is off the charts. This isn’t luck—it’s resilience, adjustments, and rhythm finding their stride. Baseball’s long game? These players are proving you can’t count them out.
