Vicente Vásquez Anato.- The Arizona Diamondbacks came from a great game on Monday against the Philadelphia Phillies 3-2, thanks to a leading role by David Peralta, who wrote his name in the record books of the Major Leagues.

The patrol car was the offensive spark that ignited the desert drills, after the night ended 7-4 with two home runs, a double and a couple of RBIs. However, his big hits came at the most urgent moments, where the wood of the criollo came out, taking into account that his first homer of the game in the ninth inning to cut the difference to a race sounded.

Later, with the score tied in the 14th inning, the Venezuelan dispatched his 19th homer of the season, giving the victory to the Cascabeles, adding also his third extrabase of the match, after the double that he shot in the 12th episode.

Thanks to this, the native of Valencia became the first player of the whole big team since 2008 to accumulate three extra-bases from the ninth inning, also registering his first homer to leave lying on the ground to his rival.

"That was my first gold homer. I always wondered how it would feel to give a homer to leave on the ground to another team and is something that can not be described, "Peralta told MLB.com at the end of his glorious game. "I was just trying to put the ball in play, do something, and he pitched me a slider that I could make a very good swing. He went to the furthest part of the field, it was a great sensation, "warned the native ranger.

As if that were not enough, with his two homers, the 30-year-old put a new personal cap on the homers department, leaving behind the 17 he landed in 2015, when he also added 78 chartered, his highest figure, which still it's 22 driven
