Akil Baddoo had a nice day at the dish in Friday's 6-2 Cactus League victory over the Diamondbacks, going 1-for-3 with a walk, RBI, run scored and a stolen base.The dynamic 27-year-old outfielder evened the score at one run apiece as he smacked an RBI single into center in the home half of the first inning. He then swiped second base before being stranded there. Baddoo also drew a one-out walk in the seventh inning and rode home on Mike Boeve's two-run blast. He's hitting an impressive .353 (6-for-17) with a homer, four RBI and two stolen bases so far in spring training and could make the Brewers' Opening Day roster in a reserve role.
