Mizzou Baseball in the Minors: Folgia heats up in July

Anybody noticed how hot Greg Folgia has been lately?

After hitting a respectable .275 in April for the Lake Valley Captains, Folgia really struggled for the next two months, hitting only .143 in May and .114 in June.

But since the beginning of July, Folgia has hit for a .303 average and a .485 slugging percentage. Over a seven game stretch through Wednesday of this week, he went 9-for-24 (.375) with two homers, one double and eight RBI.
