Knocks game-winning HR McCann went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 1-0 win over Philadelphia

Impact McCann, who had struck out twice against Phillies starter Andrew Painter, homered on the first pitch he of the eighth inning off reliever Jonathan Bowlan. The catcher reached a sweeper low in the zone for fifth home run of the season. As the backup catcher, McCann gets a couple of starts per week, but as the Diamondbacks battle for a postseason berth, manager Torey Lovullo may be tempted to get starting catcher Gabriel Moreno's bat in the lineup as much as possible. That could result in Moreno at DH and McCann behind the dish.

Drills long ball in loss McCann went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 9-4 loss to the Padres.

Impact McCann has yet to be held hitless since he was activated from a stint on the injured list due to a quadriceps strain. The catcher extended his hitting streak with a seventh-inning homer. Over nine games since his return, he's gone 18-for-35 (.514) with four homers and 15 RBI. McCann is batting .319 with an .840 OPS, four long balls, 21 RBI, 11 runs scored and five doubles over 99 plate appearances. He'll likely get a short-term bump in playing time while Gabriel Moreno is on the paternity list, though McCann's hot hitting of late could open the door for a few at-bats as the designated hitter as well.
