Phillies outfield prospect Domonic Brown, who is currently playing for Double-A Reading, hasn't lost his power but he's struggling a bit at the plate.

Brown clubbed home runs in consecutive games last week, but he has more strikeouts (11) than hits (10) over his last 10 games.

He's hitting .294/.375/.934 in those 10 games, down from his season numbers of .337/.402/1.055.

Brown is still one of the best hitters in Double-A ball, with seven home runs and 23 RBI in 30 games, but his patience at the plate may be keeping him from a promotion.

He has struck out 25 times, not an eye-popping number, but walked on just 13 occasions.
