Snake Bytes 8/13: Rocky Mountain Rojas

[D’backs.com] Rojas sparks D-backs with bat, glove in debut - The D-backs made a roster move prior to Monday’s series opener that manager Torey Lovullo admitted was made to help jumpstart his club’s offense following a quiet three-game series in Los Angeles. That move paid off, at least for one night. Joshua Rojas was called up to make his Major League debut, and he delivered two hits, including an RBI single to bring in an insurance run in the seventh inning of the 8-6 victory over the Rockies at Coors Field. On top of all that, the 25-year-old made a great play in left field, running down a Nolan Arenado fly ball headed into the spacious left-center field gap.
