2-for-4 today, 1 walk, no Ks, and a homerun.
Ackley needs to pace himself.
"Dustin Ackley has been named the Arizona Fall League player of the week. Ackley leads the league in slugging percentage (.756), on-base percentage (.557), runs (20) and walks (15). His .422 batting average is second in the league."
And that's before today.  Twice as many walks as Ks, and half his hits are for extra bases.
It may only be 50 ABs, that that's some 50 ABs.  The pitching gets harder next year in the pros, but this is a nice little warm-up for a guy who didn't get a September callup.
