Nolan Arenado Slugs 18th Bomb
5 years agoColorado Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado destroyed a hanging curveball in the first inning of Tuesday's game with the Diamondbacks to give him 18 home runs on the season. The two-run shot combined with a run-scoring double later in the game give Arenado 60 RBI so far this year, second most in the league, and he's now hitting .327, good for sixth in the majors. Arenado has cut his strikeout rate down to just 11% this year while walking 8% of the time, one of the best ratios in the majors. All of this combines to make Arenado one of the best players in baseball once again.
