Chris Owings Swats Pinch-Hit Homer On Sunday
3 years agoColorado Rockies outfielder Chris Owings went 1-for-1 with a pinch-hit solo home run in a 3-1 win over the Padres on Sunday. Owings stepped up as a pinch-hitter in the top of the seventh inning what the game tied at 1-1. He took reliever Craig Stammen deep for a solo home run, his first of the season, to give the Rockies the lead. It was his only at-bat of the ball game but it sure was a big one. The veteran utilityman is slashing .306/.405/.667 with one home run, four RBI, and two stolen bases over 36 at-bats this year. He's been effective over his incredibly small sample size but he doesn't play enough to warrant fantasy consideration.
