Arizona Diamondbacks Hit Four Home Runs in Same Postseason Inning

What an unbelievable night, with an unimaginable play. Lance Lynn, giving a repeat performance of what he has done all season long, was a boon to the D-Backs. The Dodgers pitcher’s first two innings went alright, but it was in the third inning when things exploded.

Geraldo Perdomo started with a home run against Lynn. Two batters later, Ketel Marte did the same, blasting a long ball into the right-field bleachers at Chase Field. Then, Christian Walker hit yet another moonshot, with Arizona going baffling. But the Diamondbacks were not yet done.

It was a rough night for the Los Angeles team, no doubt, but Arizona exceeded all expectations. Having traditionally relied on speed this season, they have now found their groove in power hitting. The Dodgers have yet to make a single run and the way things are going, the D-Backs may just make a sweep of the NL West leaders.
