Sat Jul 7 201201:11Adam Kennedy hits first homer of 2012
Adam Kennedy hit his first homer of 2012 off Arizona's Josh Collmenter on Friday.
Kennedy's homer came in his 119th at-bat. He hit seven in 380 at-bats for the Natonals last season, but that was above the norm for him. Ideally, the Dodgers would have a better option to start at third base against righties. Ideally, they wouldn't have spent $20 million on Juan Uribe.
