The Venezuelan Eugenio Suárez of the Arizona D-backs, excelled during the month of July, had 1,131 OPS, hit 10 home runs and drove in 27 runs, in 25 games played.
Suárez did not have a good month of June and the public began to pressure, which led the Arizona club to open up the possibility of exchanging the Venezuelan.
However, the Venezuelan third baseman was in charge of clearing doubts and is now one of the hottest clubs at the moment in the majors.
“Sometimes the fans don't understand the situation when you go through bad days, even though you work hard. These are things you can't control,” Suárez told the Arizona Republic.
He also assured that he has always believed in himself and in what he can do and that at some point he would come, and here he is now.
On Tuesday, Suárez became the twelfth D-back of all time with a three-home run match and the first to do so since Josh Rojas (May 20, 2022) against the Cubs in Chicago, LVBP reported.
It was the right-hander's first multi-home run challenge since July 6 in Houston, the fifteenth of his career and the second of three full-lap hits (September 5, 2020 in Pittsburgh).
In addition, Suárez pushed five lines in the 17-0 plush against the Washington Nationals at Chase Field.
In the last shift of that night, in the bottom of the eighth inning, the 19,758 people who attended the Arizona park chanted “Geno, Geno” as they applauded him standing up.
“It made me feel very happy, because I think I've never had that before, and now that I have it, I feel really good,” Suárez confessed to the applause of the fans.
The Venezuelan said that the support of the fans drives him to do better every day and to work hard every day to see the crowd, “we're here for them, they really deserve everything we're doing on the field. And days like this, they enjoy. They're cheering on my name and it feels great.”
