Kelly on the Attack, Player of the Week
Monday, May 10th, 2021
No single hit brought Chase Kelly Player of the Week honors -- the Jupiter Hammerheads center fielder corralled the award with a consistent approach in every at-bat.

"Hitting is all about discipline," said Kelly. "When you lose focus, start to lunge at the ball and swing too aggressively... swinging at a lot of bad pitches... that's when your average starts to drop and you wind up fighting for playing time. You're most successful when you concentrate on the ball and make 'em throw strikes."

Concentrate he did. Kelly stroked 12 hits in 26 at-bats while cranking out no home runs, 2 RBIs and 3 runs scored.

So far this year in 28 games Kelly is hitting .339 with 2 home runs, 14 RBIs and 12 runs scored.
