1B Adrian Gonzalez extended his hitting streak to 11 games with a sixth-inning double Thursday night against Philadelphia, but that proved to be the last of the Dodgers' seven hits in the game.

1B Adrian Gonzalez went 2-for-4 with two homers and five RBIs Wednesday against the Phillies, extending his hitting streak to 10 games. Gonzalez, who hit a three-run homer off Phillies starter Jake Thompson in the fourth and a two-run shot off reliever Edubray Ramos in the seventh, is hitting .450 during the streak. He is also hitting .359 in 42 games since June 27. The reason for his turnaround, he believes was simple. "My body got good," he said. He received an epidural to help combat back problems in early May, and before long he was rolling, as was the rest of the offense. The Dodgers entered Wednesday's game hitting a National League-best .280 since the All-Star break, and averaging 5.52 runs a game, best in baseball. "I just continue to do the things that are working," Gonzalez said. "When you feel good physically and you can take the right path, you just keep doing the things that are working -- good base, be on your back side and then let your hands work." Gonzalez, 2-for-2 with runners in scoring position, is hitting .462 in such situations in his last 42 games, and manager Dave Roberts believes there is more to his first baseman's extended hot streak than just improved health. "I think early on he was a victim of trying to out-think things as far as beating the (defensive) shift," he said. "There was a point about five weeks ago where he decided to get the head to the ball and pull the baseball in the air a little bit more."
