Motter went 2-for-4 with an RBI double, another two-bagger and a run in Saturday's 8-2 win over the Rangers.
After a hot start that had his average sitting at .321 on April 17, Motter had hit the skids at the plate, hitting safely in just seven of his subsequent 43 at-bats coming into Saturday. His effort against the Rangers represented his first multi-hit game since April 26, which also marked the date of his last extra-base hit. Despite the recent struggles, Motter offers tremendous defensive versatility. However, rookie Ben Gamel, who can back up all three outfield positions in his own right, could conceivably endanger Motter's roster spot if he's able to sustain his current surge while Mitch Haniger (oblique) remains out.
