C.J. Cron earned this week’s Smashburger “Smashed It” Play of the Week for his monster home run against the Padres on Saturday night.
The Rockies were trailing San Diego 5-2 in the sixth inning when Cron came to the plate and launched a ball to left field for his third home run of the season. Charlie Blackmon came around to score on the blast as well, trimming the deficit to 5-4. Unfortunately, the Rockies would go on to lose 8-4, but are still 2-1 on the young season.
Here’s how Cron’s homer looked and sounded on Saturday night:
