The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that Kelly Johnson is finishing the season on a torrid pace, batting .402 with 18 RBIs during a 22-game hitting streak that’s the longest in the National League this season. "I feel the best I’ve ever felt now,” said Johnson, who enters the opener of a season-ending series with the Astros Friday ranked second among National League second basemen in average (.285) and doubles (39), third in extra-base hits (57, including 16 homers) and fifth in RBIs (68).

Our View:During the hitting streak, Johnson has 15 extra-base hits including three triples and three home runs, and 10 multi-hit games, including two during this week’s series win at Philadelphia. After batting only .266 with a .335 on-base percentage and .416 slugging percentage in 111 games through Aug. 14, he has hit .343 with a .388 OBP and .540 slugging mark in his past 36 games.

Kelly Johnson ran his hitting streak to 21 games Tuesday, as he was 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in a 3-2 win over Philadelphia. He also stole a base.

Our View:Johnson is batting .415 this month and was able to extend his hitting streak against a tough lefty in Cole Hamels.
September 22, 2008
Kelly Johnson pushed his hitting streak to 20-games on Monday, the longest in the National League this season thanks to his 2-for-4 effort.

Our View:One of the hits tonight was his 12th home run, and he has gone deep three times while hitting .410 during the hitting streak .Johnson continues to power the Braves' offense while Chipper Jones is on the sidelines because of his sore right shoulder.
September 21, 2008
Kelly Johnson only had a single hit on Sunday in five AB, but it was still enough to extend his hitting streak to 19 games.

Our View:Johnson is hitting .405 with 14 runs scored and 15 RBI during the streak as he has boosted his totals (.283-11-65-81-10) to the point that they almost identically reflect his work from last season (.276-91-16-68-9). He is a solid top-12 second baseman heading into next season.
