With his performance last night, Bell is now 20-for-55 with a batting average of .364 with five doubles, two homers, nine RBIs, nine walks, and 11 runs scored over the past 15 games. Bell ranks two in the NL OBP leaders with a .444 behind Manny Machado of San Deigo. Bell has reached base safely in 27 of 30 games this season.
