Crawford went 2-for-4 with an RBI single, a walk and two runs in a win over the Rays on Monday.
The productive effort helped snap Crawford out of a multi-game funk, as he'd gone just 4-for-28 over the previous seven contests. Crawford has only two extra-base hits (one double, one home run) in August, however, and he's slashing just. 194/.296/.296 over 108 second-half plate appearances. He has just a .244 BABIP over that stretch, a byproduct of sharp reductions in his line-drive rate (14.5 percent, down from 28.2 percent) and hard-contact rate (23.5 percent, down from 33.6 percent).
