Last Wednesday, the Diamondbacks and the Rockies combined for 30 hits between the two teams.

Now that the team is back at Chase Field, I see the Diamondbacks bats exploding once again.

They have always been known for hitting at home and that will continue tonight. The Monday night elimination game lineup is set up to go with two contact hitters followed by three big power guys in Paul Goldschmidt, J.D. Martinez, and Jake Lamb.

I see the Diamondbacks jumping out to a big lead and keeping the foot on the gas.
