Pence leads Phillies in offense Thursday
Hunter Pence - OF - Philadelphia Phillies
May 18, 2012 - 1:25 AM ET

Hunter Pence went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Thursday's game against the Cubs.

Pence was in a 3-for-31 slump entering Thursday, but improved his average to .253 on the season and now has an .788 OPS through 154 at-bats. While he's provided solid power numbers thus far, he'll need to improve on his .301 on-base percentage to be more of a consistent fantasy option going forward.
