Nick Martini News: Pops first homer

Martini went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored Wednesday against the Phillies.

Martini continues to serve as Colorado's primary designated hitter against right-handed pitching, though he cedes occasional starts there when Hunter Goodman gets an off day from catching duties. Martini has maintained a decent .250 batting average, but he has only one home run with four RBI and nine runs scored across 97 plate appearances.
