Two More for Francoeur

Jeff Francoeur is two for two so far tonight, raising his batting average to .418. He's 33 for 79, which is still a very small sample size, but the Braves should be happy with the results so far. He's yet to draw a walk, but he's been plunked, so his OBA is higher than his batting average.

In addition, 16 of his 33 hits were for extra bases. He's a much better solution in right field than Brian Jordan.

Update: Francoeur ends the game four for four, all singles. He's now batting .432 with an .827 slugging percentage.

Wow, even if this guy putters out and becomes an average player...this is surely one great start to a career.
