Chase Field
Chase Field, Phoenix, AZ
Eduardo Escobar - Homers as pinch hitterEscobar (quadriceps) hit a solo home run in his only at-bat in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to Milwaukee.
ImpactThe 32-year-old went deep in the eighth inning to pull Arizona within a run. Escobar remained in the game as a defensive replacement for Josh VanMeter at second base. With a day off Thursday, Escobar may be rested enough to return to the starting nine Friday versus San Diego. He's slashing .242/.290/.466 with 16 homers, 46 RBI, 38 runs scored and a stolen base through 297 plate appearances.

Christian Walker - Goes deep in lossWalker went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to Milwaukee.
ImpactThe first baseman's seventh-inning solo shot accounted for the only run Arizona could muster off Milwaukee ace Brandon Woodruff. Walker has homered just twice in 21 games in June while batting .191 (13-for-68) this month. He has three long balls, 17 RBI, 19 runs scored and a disappointing .197/.243/.310 slash line through 152 plate appearances this year.

Caleb Smith - Quality start in lossSmith (2-3) allowed a run on four hits and four walks with six strikeouts in six innings, taking the loss versus Milwaukee on Wednesday.
ImpactThis was a hard-luck loss for Smith, who only gave up an RBI single to opposing pitcher Brandon Woodruff in the fifth inning. Milwaukee added a pair of runs off reliever Noe Ramirez in the seventh. Smith has been solid with a 3.03 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 67:30 K:BB across 59.1 innings this year. The southpaw is projected to make his next start in St. Louis next week.

Tyrone Taylor - Records second stealTaylor went 2-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Wednesday's 3-2 win over Arizona.
ImpactWednesday was Taylor's first start since he returned from a shoulder injury that required a minimum stay on the injured list. The 27-year-old singled and stole second in the fourth inning. He also singled and scored on a sacrifice fly by Jackie Bradley in the seventh. For the year, Taylor is is slashing .223/.311/.447 with six home runs, 15 RBI, nine runs scored and two stolen bases across 106 plate appearances. He's set to take on a depth role, as Christian Yelich, Bradley and Avisail Garcia are likely to be Milwaukee's preferred outfield trio.

Josh Hader - Converts 19th saveHader pitched a perfect inning and struck out two to earn the save in Wednesday's 3-2 win over Arizona.
ImpactHader needed 17 pitches to complete the inning, but he got the job done cleanly. The closer is now 19-for-19 in save opportunities this year. He's pitched to a minuscule 0.59 ERA and 0.72 WHIP with a 52:11 K:BB across 30.2 innings.

Brandon Woodruff - Bounces back with gemWoodruff (6-3) earned the win Wednesday versus Arizona. He allowed one run on three hits and two walks with nine strikeouts in seven innings.
ImpactAfter a brutal start last Thursday in Colorado, the right-hander returned to form. The only damage on Woodruff's line was a Christian Walker solo home run in the seventh inning. Woodruff also struck out nine or more batters for the fifth time in his last nine starts. The 28-year-old has a sparkling 1.89 ERA, 0.76 WHIP and 111:21 K:BB across 95 innings. His next start is expected to be against the Cubs next week.
