Christian Walker hit the ball hard again on Monday, launching a solo home run high off the batter's eye in center field at the Peoria Sports Complex in the Arizona Diamondbacks' 6-2 win over the Seattle Mariners.
Walker hit three of the Diamondbacks' five longest home runs by projected distance last season, going deep for a projected 444 feet on Sept. 8 off Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen, 446 feet at Chase Field against the Colorado Rockies on Sept. 25 and hitting a 451-foot bomb into the left field seats at empty Coors Field on Aug. 11.
Walker said the hard hitting comes from the way he plays the game.
