Markakis having monster spring

Continuing his monster spring, Nick Markakis went 4-for-4 with two home runs and four RBIs in Thursday's 8-0 blowout against the Dodgers. While the two homers marked Markakis' first of Spring Training, there's been no shortage of hits coming off the 23-year-old's bat, having raised his overall batting average to .404 (21-for-52). Furthermore, he's struck out on just five occasions.
