Arizona Diamondbacks Star Corbin Carroll Reaches Huge Milestone

Arizona Diamondbacks star outfielder Corbin Carroll added another chapter to his breakout season with a stunning display of power at Coors Field on Wednesday afternoon.

Carroll blasted his 20th and 21st home runs of the season, helping to propel the Diamondbacks closer to a potential postseason berth. His first home run, a monstrous 438-foot shot into the right-field bleachers, came on a 1-0 fastball from Rockies starter Austin Gomber.

Not long after, Carroll followed it up with a second-inning line drive, barely clearing the right-field scoreboard on a full-count slider.

With these two home runs, Carroll joined elite company, becoming just the 11th player in MLB history to record two or more seasons with at least 20 home runs and 20 stolen bases by the age of 23 or younger, per Stathead .

Carroll’s impressive power surge marks a remarkable turnaround from his early season struggles.

In the first half of the season, he was plagued by the dreaded sophomore slump, managing only two home runs and 15 RBIs through July 6 while batting a paltry .210 with a .608 OPS. The promising outfielder appeared to be fighting to regain his form, with the pressure mounting as the Diamondbacks aimed to stay in the postseason race.

But since July 7, Carroll has been a completely different player.

In his last 261 plate appearances, he’s hit 19 home runs, stolen 14 bases, and driven in 47 runs while scoring 61 times in 61 games. His batting average has climbed to .236, while his OPS now stands at a more respectable .761. Carroll also leads the league with 14 triples, highlighting his speed and extra-base power.

Carroll’s resurgence has been a major factor in the Diamondbacks’ post-All-Star break push for the postseason. His combination of power, speed, and clutch hitting has electrified the Arizona offense and given the team a much-needed boost.

As one of the key catalysts of the team, his contributions have been invaluable as the Diamondbacks continue their fight for a playoff spot in the highly competitive National League.

With his recent success, Carroll is showing why he’s one of the most exciting young talents in the game, and his ability to turn around a difficult start to the season speaks volumes about his resilience and potential as a franchise cornerstone for years to come.

As the Arizona Diamondbacks look to make a deep postseason run, all eyes will be on Corbin Carroll to see if he can continue his stellar second-half performance.
