OMAHA - The list of accolades continue to roll in for Hunter Dozier. The Storm Chasers Third Baseman has been awarded the Pacific Coast League Player of the Week Award for the period of July 4 - July 10, the League announced today.

The former 2013 First Round Draft pick by the Kansas City Royals was part of Team USA in the MLB All-Star Futures Game last night in San Diego.

Dozier continued his torrid start to the month of the July. During the five games he participated in last week prior to flying to San Diego for the MLB All-Star festivities, he was 14-for-22 (.636) at the plate with 2 Home Runs, 5 RBI, and 3 doubles. Seemingly a catalyst of each Chasers rally, he also scored 7 runs.

The 6-foot-4, 220-pound Texan is riding a 9-game hitting streak into the PCL All-Star Break. Dating back to June 30th, he is 21-for-35 (.600) with 7 extra-base hits. In 40 plate appearances in that span, he has walked 5 times and struck out just once.

The 24-year-old is enjoying his best statistical season since 2013, the year he was drafted out of Stephen F. Austin State. He split his professional time in Rookie Level Idaho Falls and Class A-Lexington that year and batted .308 with 7 Home Runs and 52 RBI in 69 games after his Junior year in Nacogdoches, Texas.

Dozier has raised his average from .298 to .341 during the streak. The mark places him second in League Batting Average. The last Storm Chasers Player of the Week was Jose Martinez in August of 2015. Martinez went on to claim the League's Batting Title with a .384 average.

The Storm Chasers have reached the All-Star Break and will return to Werner Park when PCL play resumes on Thursday, July 14th to begin an 8-Game Homestand at 7:05 p.m. against the Salt Lake Bees.

Tickets for all remaining Storm Chasers home games can be purchased online at www.omahastormchasers.com/tickets or by calling the Werner Park Ticket Office at (402) 738-5100.
