Phillie of the Week: August 14-20

Due to weather, the Phils had a shortened schedule over the past seven days, only playing five games and going 3-2 in those five. While not that impressive compared to the rest of the season, the team still put up solid numbers. A few players stood out, including one young man who is looking for some more playing time. This week's Phillie of the Week is:

John Mayberry

Mayberry has been lights out since he came back up from the minor leagues, and this week was no different. In the five games he played, Mayberry had seven hits in 15 at bats, good for a .467 batting average, as well as driving in four runs and hitting a home run. He also walked twice and scored five runs. Not bad for a platoon player, right?
