McKinstry went 1-for-2 with an inside-the-park home run in Saturday's win over the Rockies.
McKinstry entered the game as a defensive substitution in the bottom of the seventh but made his presence felt with his first at-bat, hitting what appeared to be a home run -- outfielder Raimel Tapia brought it back when trying to make the catch. As a result, McKinstry was credited with an inside-the-park homer in what was just his second at-bat of the season. McKinstry has hit safely in his first two games of the campaign, going 2-for-3 while coming into the game as a pinch hitter in both contests.
