Diamondbacks' Cooper Hummel: Crushes first big-league homer

Hummel went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in Sunday's 10-5 loss to the Padres.

Hummel walked in the third inning and made the final score more respectable with a 439-foot shot to center in the ninth. Manager Torey Lovullo appears to like the 27-year-old in the leadoff spot against southpaws, though he'll need to progress further than the weak side of a platoon to have consistent fantasy value. He also served as the catcher for the final inning, while starting catcher Carson Kelly pitched.
