David Ortiz shows no issues with back stiffness

by John Aubin | Sun, Aug 21st 5:44am EDT

David Ortiz went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer in a 3-2 victory over the Tigers on Saturday. His back is apparently feeling better. The veteran slugger left Friday's game with some upper back stiffness, but he returned to the lineup Saturday.

Fantasy Impact:

Ortiz looked good at the plate on Saturday and seems to have broken out of the mini-slump he was in. He has a seven-game hitting streak going and is 5 for 7 with two homers over his last two games.
