RecapMauricio Dubón clubbed his first home run of the season and scored three runs in a lopsided victory over the Diamondbacks on Thursday evening in Arizona.
Dubón reached on a fielder’s choice and scored during the Braves’ eight-run uprising in the fifth inning. He then tagged right-hander Joe Ross for a 413-foot (101.7 mph EV) solo shot in the sixth inning that extended the Braves’ advantage to 11-1. He also drew a walk and singled in the ballgame, finishing the night 2-for-4. The versatile 31-year-old is off to a strong start at the dish this season, hitting .400/.455/.600 with a homer and six RBI in his first 22 plate appearances.
