Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Brandon Drury was named National League Co-Player of the Week alongside Pittsburgh Pirates first-baseman Sean Rodriguez.

Drury solidified his accolade with an extraordinary performance that included a walk-off single in the Diamondbacks 10-9 win against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Sunday. The second year left-fielder batted 4-for-5 with a double, two RBI, two walks, one home run and three runs.

Drury is slashing .500/.588/1.036 with four homers and seven RBI in the last seven games against the Rockies and the Dodgers.

The 24-year-old has had more time to shine this season in 121 games played and 412 at-bats compared to 20 games played and 56 at-bats last year. Drury recorded 50 runs, 26 doubles, 48 RBI and a .284 batting average so far in the 2016 season.
