Joel Gentry is still a bit shy, but then, who could blame the newest National League Rookie of the Month honoree? He hasn’t been around the league long enough to fully know the ropes yet, despite the fact that he’s putting up veteran-like numbers.
In May the Atlanta hitter tagged opposing pitching for a .403 average with 29 hits, 3 home runs and 13 RBIs.
This season Gentry is batting .315 with 4 home runs.
