Snake Bytes 9/12: It’s Rainin’ It’s Pourin’, The D-Backs Weren’t Snorin’
The result of his second-to-last at-bat was met with silence. Pham crushed a game-tying homer to center field in the eighth inning, sparking the D-backs’ 4-3 comeback victory over the Mets.

“There’s a group that didn’t allow us to lose this game,” said manager Torey Lovullo. “But after Tommy hit the home run, I felt like we were right where we needed to be. It was a huge hit by a player that has been getting big hits for us since he’s gotten here.”
