ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS

Chris Young homers in grand fashion for Visalia

May 17, 2012, 12:18 AM | Updated: 1:23 am

Chris Young cannot return to the Diamondbacks soon enough.

The outfielder, out since injuring his right shoulder on
April 17, has been playing for Single-A Visalia as he works
his way back into form.

And, after only a couple of games, it seems like he has.

Young went 1-for-4 Wednesday night with a grand slam, giving
him seven RBI in just three minor league games. He’s also
hit .308 and tallied 10 total bases.

It’s probably safe to say the D-backs could use his offense
back in the lineup, and if all goes according to plan, he
could rejoin the team this weekend in Kansas City.
