This was Muncy’s second home run of the night. His first came in the opening inning, but the Dodgers had been quiet since then—until Muncy stepped up again in the final frame.
Facing an elevated fastball, Muncy launched the ball 408 feet to right-center field. His confident bat flip and calm trot around the bases made it clear: this was a moment that could shift the game—and the Dodgers' momentum.
Muncy’s homer not only tied the game, but it ended a scoreless drought and prevented what would have been a third straight loss for the team.
DODGERS SCORE!
