France had gone 10 games without a homer, but he collected six doubles in that span. The infielder muscled up for a long ball to cap the Padres' six-run rally in the fifth inning Friday. On the year, France is batting .301 with an .887 OPS, 21 homers, 69 RBI, 55 runs scored, 23 doubles, two triples and one stolen base over 125 contests.

After missing the weekend series in San Francisco while on the paternity list, France picked up where he left off with a three-hit effort in Colorado. Monday marked his seventh game of the season with a trio of knocks, with four of those coming after the All-Star break. France has been a revelation in his second stint in San Diego, slashing .298/.365/.514 with 20 homers, 64 RBI, 53 runs and a stolen base in 447 plate appearances this year.
