Hernandez Ends Slump with 412-Foot Homer
31 Jul
Summary
- Hernandez hit a 412-foot solo home run in the sixth inning.
- This was his first home run in 19 games, ending a significant slump.
- He also scored an additional run and drew a walk in the win.

Hernandez ended a 19-game homerless streak with a significant blast on Thursday. The solo shot traveled 412 feet to center field, marking his first long ball since July 3. This performance came during the Los Angeles' 6-2 victory over Seattle.
Prior to this game, Hernandez had struggled, batting just .177 with only one RBI during his slump. The veteran outfielder's power display on Thursday, which also included an additional run scored and a walk, might indicate a turning point. Last August, he hit five home runs, suggesting he is capable of a strong finish to the season.
