Daniel Murphy Hits 7th Homer
5 years agoFollowing an ugly start to the season with a terrible thumb injury, Colorado Rockies first baseman Daniel Murphy has settled right back into his groove. Murphy blasted one into the pool in right-center to get the scoring started in the top of the second inning, and he's now knocked in 44 runs in the first half of the season, even though he missed nearly 30 games. Murphy's numbers are surprisingly in line with his career stats even though hand injuries usually sap hitters' power. The 34-year-old should be a lock to put up solid numbers in the second half, and Colorado's powerful lineup will certainly continue to inflate his RBI totals.
