The 2012 season has been anything but normal for the Philadelphia Phillies and Ryan Howard.
The 32 year-old was out till June after tearing his Achilles in the postseason last year against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Howard has consistently been one of the top first baseman in the league for a while now. This season has been a little different for him so far.
First of all, his team the Phillies, are 16.5 games behind the Washington Nationals for first place in the NL East. Second, Howard has only had a little over 200 at bats this season due to injury. The power is still there for Howard.
In 58 games, played he has 41 RBIs and 10 homers. That might not be the numbers you expect from Howard, but you have to give the guy a break. He is coming back from arguably one of the worst injuries in sports.
