KRIS BRYANT

After being acquired by the Colorado Rockies over the offseason, Kris Bryant has unfortunately been on and off the IL with back problems. Last night, however, he hit his much-anticipated first home run as a Colorado Rockies player in the sixth inning of a contest between his new Club and the Los Angeles Dodgers. Bryant belted this solo longball off Dodgers hurler Phil Bickford, and helped his Colorado Rockies shrink the deficit by a run. Unfortunately, Colorado took home a 5-2 loss, but Bryant's home run has the Club's fans excited for the future.
