Rockies' Mickey Moniak: Getting consistent playing time

Moniak went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and two runs scored in Tuesday's 10-6 win over the Nationals.

Moniak has now started in five of Colorado's last six games and appears to have regained a foothold in the team's regular lineup against right-handed pitching. Tyler Freeman appeared to have supplanted Moniak in right field, but the Rockies have been using Freeman at designated hitter more frequently to keep both players' bats in the lineup. Over his last seven contests, Moniak has gone 7-for-21 with four home runs, one triple, one double and one stolen base.
