Suárez's Homer Barrage Powers Diamondbacks Past Yankees

Eugenio Suárez is on a remarkable power surge, hitting nothing but home runs to start the season, including a crucial grand slam against the Yankees that sparked a five-run rally and secured a 7-5 victory for the Diamondbacks. Suárez's five hits this season are all home runs, accompanied by 11 RBIs, placing him in rare company alongside Rob Deer and Rodolfo Castro as one of only three players in the Modern Era to achieve this feat. His recent performance follows his NL Player of the Week honors, underlining his current offensive dominance.  

The grand slam came at a pivotal moment, with the Diamondbacks trailing 4-2 in the eighth inning. Suárez, who struggled early last season before a dramatic turnaround, has found his rhythm and is now delivering on the team's investment. His approach at the plate has shifted from trying to hit home runs every at-bat to focusing on quality at-bats, as demonstrated by his game winning hit. His five home runs tie for the third-most by a player through his team’s first five games of a season in Major League history, showcasing his extraordinary power and contribution to the Diamondbacks' early success
