What happened: The second-inning swing extended the lead to 3-0. Heriberto Hernandez finished 1-for-3 with a walk, one RBI and one run scored.
Why it matters: The victory secured the series. The homer supplied what became the winning margin in the 4-2 finish.
By the numbers: The 393-foot drive left the bat at 109.2 mph with a 22-degree launch angle and projected to clear the fence in all 30 MLB parks.
What to watch: Hernandez's next home run would give him 20 for the season.
