Remember when Paul Goldschmidt was going to canter off and win the team MVP award by the length of I-10? Seems A.J. Pollock has other ideas lately: his recent incandescent streak had narrowed the gap between himself and Goldie to 0.5 fWAR and 1.1 bWAR coming into tonight's game, and it's only going to have got closer. For Paul's struggles persisted, as he went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts, and A.J.'s surge also continued: he homered, doubled, singled twice, stole two bases and scored half our six runs. It made him the second D-back ever with consecutive four-hit games, Steve Finley being the only other [he did it twice, Sep 6-7, 2003 and June 1-2, 1999]
Pollock is now hitting .
