Red-hot Paul Goldschmidt has led Diamondbacks offense to power surge in June

What humidor?

After a month of May in which runs were extremely hard to come by, no team in baseball has had a better offensive month of June than the Diamondbacks.

Entering play Saturday, the Diamondbacks had already scored 99 runs in 14 games in June, compared to 77 over 28 games in May. The club ranks among MLB’s best in runs (first), triples (first, 8), walks (first, 60), on-base percentage (first, .366), slugging percentage (second, .525), home runs (tied-second, 26), hits (third, 132) and batting average (third, .278).

All this from an offense that was among the worst in baseball over the first two months of the season.
