Kyle Schwarber knew this was gone right off the bat. ud83dude2f <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/NLCS?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#NLCS</a> <a href="https://t.co/Ew3czF0wLg">pic.twitter.com/Ew3czF0wLg</a>

Schwarber entered the evening tied with Baseball Hall of Famer Reggie "Mr. October" Jackson atop the list at 18 homers apiece, but his fourth-inning blast off Diamondbacks left-handed reliever Kyle Nelson puts him in the solo lead.

The home run, which went 408 feet, was Schwarber's fourth against Arizona this series alone.
