Eric Thames sent a first-inning changeup from Jacob deGrom into the bullpen in right-center , 436 feet from home plate, for a two-run homer. Thames hit his 13th home run on May 9.

"The last three weeks, I'd get fastballs, I'd swing -- foul ball or off the end." read more http://www.espn.com/mlb/recap?gameId=370531121
