Reds' Billy Hamilton: Scores twice against Cubbies

Hamilton went 2-for-4 with an RBI and two runs during Thursday's loss to the Cubbies.

The speedster has heated up of late and posted a 21-for-61 stretch (.344 batting average) with six extra-base hits, 10 RBI, five stolen bases and 17 runs over his past 13 games. Typically, Hamilton is viewed as a two-category asset (runs and stolen bases), so this is an encouraging surge, especially the extra-base hit and RBI totals.
