LOS ANGELES — Christian Walker put on another power display at Dodger Stadium, igniting the Arizona Diamondbacks in his first two at-bats with his 18th and 19th home runs in 42 career games at the ballpark.Both homers came against Dodgers rookie pitcher Landon Knack, a former Science Hill High School and East Tennessee State University star.“He’s playing at an unbelievable level, an All-Star-caliber level,” Diamondbacks starter Zac Gallen said. “I hope Major League Baseball sees that and they find a way to put him on the (All-Star) team.”While his teammates erupted, Walker crossed home plate with a placid expression that belied his jaw-dropping performance. The Diamondbacks beat the Los Angeles 9-3 on Thursday, taking two of three games from the NL West leaders.“He’s Babe Ruth against us,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said.
