Peoria Journal-Star[/url]"]Vitters has had at least three hits and a homer in four consecutive games. According to Baseball Prospectus, no major leaguer has done that in at least 60 years. The Chiefs will play their next nine at home.

Kyle Burke has a Cubs minor league-high 16 doubles. He's slugging .520 which is 10th in the MWL.

 

Of course Josh Vitters' .598 SLG is second in the MWL and his .998 OPS is tops in the league.
