Raimel Tapia Hits Clutch Home Run On Friday
4 years agoColorado Rockies outfielder Raimel Tapia went 3-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-4 win over the Philadelphia Phillies. Tapia played the hero on Friday as he hit a walk-off home run off Hector Neris in the bottom of the ninth inning to win it for Colorado. He picked up a pair of singles earlier in the contest as well. The 27-year-old has now hit leadoff in five straight games and seems to be comfortable in that spot, evidenced by his five-game hitting streak. His season batting line is up to a comfortable .297/.352/.453 with three home runs and seven RBI with one stolen base over 64 at-bats. His fantasy stock will continue to rise as long as he bats first.
