Snake Bytes 8/17: Power Walker

[AZC] Christian Walker’s heroics lead Diamondbacks to series win over Rockies

“Christian, what can you say? He had an incredible series,” manager Torey Lovullo said. “Four home runs, and big home runs. Very timely home runs.”

On Monday, Walker’s sixth-inning homer was overshadowed by a late bullpen collapse. On Tuesday, he homered early but didn’t play a role in the ninth-inning rally. On Wednesday, there was no mistaking the Diamondbacks’ hero, not after Walker followed his first-inning homer with the game-winning blast in the eighth.
