In the regular season showdown with the NC Dinos at Samsung Lions Park in Daegu on Saturday, Diaz started as the fourth designated hitter and hit three home runs in a game, including two-run in the third inning, two-run in the fourth inning, and three-run in the eighth inning, leading his team to come from behind to win 10-6. It is Diaz's best day with three home runs and seven RBIs.
Samsung allowed two runs in the first inning as its starting pitcher Kim Dae-ho struggled to control his ball early on the day. He allowed two more runs in the second inning, leading the team to 0-4. Diaz fired a signal of pursuit. In the top of the third inning with one out and one base on Koo Ja-wook's walk, Diaz hit a superior two-run shot by hitting Mok Ji-hoon's 132km slider with two balls and one strike. He made his seventh homer of the season 2-4.
In the top of the fourth inning, when his team turned the game around 5-4, Diaz hit Son Joo-hwan's third pitch, a forkball in the middle of 135 kilometers, to hit the homer over the left-center fence. Two-run shot in consecutive at-bats.
He hit a 143-km fastball on the second pitch in the count of one strike with one out and runners on the first and second bases in the bottom of the eighth inning, when the score gap was tight at 7-5. He garnered seven RBIs through a three-homer game.
After the game, Diaz greeted the reporters with a big smile. "I feel so good because I hit three home runs in a game. I think this is the best game of my career," Diaz said, smiling. "I think there was a game where I hit three home runs when I was playing for Triple-A in the U.S. Minor League, and today's game was even more special."
As the two teams donated four pitches to each other early in the game, the flow of the game became loose. Diaz, who was designated as the designated hitter, could hardly have maintained his condition in the dugout. "I stretched in between innings and maintained my senses by hitting the ball at the indoor practice range," he said. "Honestly, it is not easy to play this long and make a designated hitter. I thought about how to keep my body heated, and I tried to warm up indoors just before every at-bat to maintain my senses."
There were also strong voices of regret over Diaz. In early April, his batting average for this season fell to the 190-point range. However, he gradually elevated his batting sense and gained confidence by receiving consolation advice. Then, he returned to the big-handed first baseman that Samsung wanted. He is reviving the impact of last year. He has multi hits in two consecutive games and four homers in two games.
"Honestly, it's true that it was hard," he said. In the meantime, I've heard good advice, but I've been thinking a lot about 'what should I do' and 'Why won't my grades come out so well?' he confessed.
In the meantime, he reflected on coach Park Jin-man's advice. "The coach said a lot of good things. Not only homers but also getting on base definitely helps the team," he said. "He said it's okay to hit strikes, but now it's a problem to have a bat on the ball."
Following the previous day's homer, Diaz added three homers on the day, and the number of homers increased to nine in an instant. He also tied for first in homers with Kia Tigers' Patrick Wisdom and Hanwha Eagles' Noh Si-hwan. When asked about Diaz's plan to become the home run champion, he smiled brightly and said, "I just want to be really good at baseball. However, it would be a great honor for me and I would feel great if I could win the home run title." There are no more concerns about Diaz. All Samsung has to do is fly higher with Diaz.
