I was one of those who ripped Kong for his futile production for the first 4 months of the season, calling for him to be benched. Therefore I feel obliged to start an appreciation thread for him now that he's clearly turned it around in August:
.339 BA
.610 SLG
.500 OBP
1.110 OPS
4 HR (a wee bit low for him, but seems to be flashing more power lately)
Here's to Ozzie for sticking with him and PK for pulling out of it - would love to see this guy lead us down the stretch!
