Blasts first homer of year Nunez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 11-6 loss to the Dodgers.

Impact The Rockies erupted for four homers in the seventh inning, including Nunez's blast, but couldn't get anything going the rest of the night. The 26-year-old is opening the season as the No. 2 catcher behind Elias Diaz, giving him some DFS appeal for home starts at Coors Field, but Nunez could push his way into a larger role if he hits well or Diaz struggles.

Blasts two-run homer in loss Nunez went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and one strikeout in Thursday's spring loss to the Cubs.

Impact Nunez has been more patient at the plate to begin spring training, and he's had strong production as a result. "I feel great in the box right now," Nunez told Thomas Harding of MLB.com. "I'm not chasing offspeed pitches, which is the big thing -- if you don't chase it, then they're not usually going to throw it. That's kind of my whole idea." He blasted his first home run of the spring off Kyle Hendricks in the bottom of the second inning and has now gone 6-for-14 with two extra-base hits, three runs, three RBI and two strikeouts over his first six games of spring training.

Triples in comeback win Nunez went 1-for-2 with a triple, one run and one strikeout in Wednesday's 10-7 win over the Athletics.

Impact Nunez struck out in his first at-bat Wednesday, but he drove a fastball to right-center in the fifth inning to help spark a comeback victory over Oakland. The 26-year-old was never called up during the 2020 campaign but appears to be in line for a major-league role in 2021. "Nunez is going to be given a real opportunity to see what he can do on the big league level," manager Bud Black said during the offseason. He's gone 2-for-4 with one run over his first two Cactus League games this year.
