If you've been paying attention to Brewers camp this season, you're probably familiar with the Geoff Jenkins saga. If you're new to the story, I'll recap. Jenkins more or less told the Brewers to give him the starting job in right field or trade him. The problem is that Jenkins is pretty much a platoon player for any team at this point in his career because of his inability to hit left-handed pitching. Good thing for the Brewers, Jenkins has magically learned to hit lefties this spring based on an enormous sample size of... well, two. Yep, two singles off of lefties in spring training games means that pretty much everyone's problems are solved.Brewers outfielder Geoff Jenkins, who was outspoken early in camp against giving up at-bats against left-handers, is apparently letting his bat do the talking.
Jenkins had another solid game Friday, when a Brewers split-squad throttled the Giants, 21-2, at Scottsdale Stadium. He went 3-for-5 with three runs and an RBI, including a single off Giants left-hander Ryan Meaux in a six-run Brewers third inning. In Thursday's win over the A's, Jenkins went 2-for-3, including an opposite-field RBI single off lefty Erasmo Ramirez.
