Diamondbacks' Paul Goldschmidt: Sputtering offensively at home
Goldschmidt went 1-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts in a 3-1 loss to the Nationals on Friday.
Goldschmidt's performance represented one of his better ones of late, illustrating the extent of his slump since the calendar flipped to May. Through the Diamondbacks' first 10 games this month, Goldschmidt is slashing just .079/.205/.105, dropping his season OPS to a career-worst .738 OPS. The installation of the humidor at Chase Field this season was expected to result in some decline in Goldschmidt's power production, but the park effects have been perhaps even more pronounced than anticipated. The first baseman has yet to record a home run in 21 games at home, with his .569 OPS at Chase Field representing a 341-point dropoff from his mark on the road.
