Eduardo Escobar blasts a pinch-hit HR
by Jon Mathisen | Wed, Jun 23rd 8:31pm EDT
Third baseman Eduardo Escobar (quad) went 1-for-1 with a pinch-hit home run in the Diamondbacks 3-2 loss to the Brewers on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact:
Escobar was absent from the starting lineup for his third straight game on Wednesday as he's been dealing with a quad issue. The good news is that he's been able to serve as a pinch-hitter the last two games and he paid off on Wednesday when he cracked his 16th homer of the season off of Devin Williams in the eighth inning. The veteran infielder is now batting .242/.290/.466 with 38 runs, 16 home runs, and 46 RBI on the year. He should be back in the starting lineup on Friday when the D-Backs head to San Diego for a three-game set.
