Weeks goes deep for first time in 2013
Rickie Weeks - 2B - Milwaukee Brewers
March 2, 2013 - 6:20 PM ET

Rickie Weeks hit his first home run of the spring during the Brewers 4-3 victory over the Angels Saturday.

Weeks also doubled in his three at-bats, raising his spring average to .231. Batting average isn't where Weeks makes his money, though. The 30-year-old hit 21 home runs last year, with 13 coming after the All-Star break. A rough couple months served to derail his 2012, but the power potential is still very much there. Weeks could be a nice source of counting stats in 2013.
