Diaz went 2-for-4 with a double and a solo home run in Friday's 3-2 win over the Phillies.
Diaz hadn't gone deep since May 1, a span of 31 games. The Cuban shortstop has hit safely in six of his last seven games and has compiled five extra-base hits (four doubles, one homer) in his first eight contests of June. While the 26-year-old's current .262 average represents a 38-point drop from the .300 figure he mustered in his rookie campaign, Diaz's contact rate has actually seen a one-percent boost to 86 percent.
