Historic Performance
Eugenio Suarez delivered a standout two-home run display in an 8-1 win over the Chicago Cubs at Chase Field. His powerful showing helped the team even their record at 1-1 for the season, while the Cubs now sit at 1-3.
Elite Milestone
This game marked Suarez’s second consecutive day with a home run, bringing his total to three for the year. Achieving such a feat in the team’s season opener places him in rare company, aligning his performance with that of Luis Gonzalez—a key figure remembered for his monumental contributions, including a decisive hit in a championship series.
A Testament to Power
Now in his 12th professional season through journeys with Detroit, Cincinnati, Seattle and Arizona, Suarez maintains a career average of .249 and has amassed 279 home runs. His recent 30-home run season and multiple seasons surpassing the 30-homer mark underscore his reputation as a formidable power hitter.
Looking Forward
With the next matchup against the Cubs on the horizon, Suarez aims to extend his streak by adding another homer. The upcoming game will showcase emerging pitching talents and set the stage for further individual and team accomplishments as the season unfolds.
