Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte didn’t let Atlanta Braves starter Spencer Strider get away with leaving the ball over the plate, as he crushed two home runs in the opening three innings of Tuesday’s game at Truist Park.
The two blasts moved Marte up to third on the Diamondbacks’ all-time RBIs list with 481, passing Steve Finley’s 479. Paul Goldschmidt is second with 710, and Luis Gonzalez holds the top spot with 774.
In terms of home runs, Marte reached 150 as a member of the D-backs with his second on Tuesday — Finley is third in team history with 153.
