The Dodgers hit four home runs in the fourth inning, and Jason Heyward's two-run shot to cap the festivities might have been the most impressive. He got a center-cut fastball at 90 MPH and didn't miss it. For Heyward it marked his third homer of the year and first since May 29. It was his first home run at home since May 17 when he returned from the IL. The two-run blast gave Los Angeles a season-high 14 runs and extended their lead to 14-1.
