Jim Salisbury, of The Philadelphia Inquirer, reports Philadelphia Phillies OF Pat Burrell went 0-for-4 with a walk on May 21 against the Washington Nationals. He is hitting .143 (7-for-49), with one homer and two RBI, in his last 15 games. His average has dropped from .330 to 271. "He has the same stance and setup," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. "He's just going through a period where he's not hitting. The only thing I see him doing wrong is he's starting to chase bad breaking balls. He's pulling off the ball a little."
