Cincinnati Reds outfielder Jay Bruce tied a franchise record during the seventh inning of Wednesday's 2-1 win over the San Francisco Giants, hitting a home run in a fifth consecutive game, per Sportsnet Stats.
Stepping up to the plate with no outs and nobody on base, Bruce got a first-pitch fastball from Giants ace Madison Bumgarner and lined it over the right field fence at At&T Park.
Bumgarner then retired the final six batters he faced, but his eight-inning, two-run effort wasn't quite enough, as Reds starter Dan Straily limited the Giants to just one run over 7.
