Lourdes Gurriel Jr. shines despite Diamondbacks' loss to Padres
by Nicholas Rodriguez | Diamondbacks Correspondent | Wed, Aug 6th 5:18am EDT
Lourdes Gurriel Jr. went 2-for-5 in the loss to the Padres, driving in four runs with two home runs and scoring twice.
Fantasy Impact:
In a historic moment on Tuesday, Gurriel launched a two-run homer off a blistering 103.9 mph fastball from Mason Miller. The feat marked the hardest-hit pitch for a home run in the pitch-tracking era (since 2008). With that performance, which was part of a two-homer night, Gurriel's updated season stats sit at a .249 batting average, 14 home runs, and 56 RBI in 104 games after yesterday’s win.
