Fernando Tatis Jr. of the San Diego Padres hits a home run to end a prolonged drought. Multiple outlets report that he goes nearly two months without a homer and breaks a 55-game homerless streak. The home run comes on a 451-foot shot against the Washington Nationals, with both reports characterizing the blast as his first of the season. One report notes that Tatis’ previous home run occurred on Sept. 27 last season, making the drought span from late last season through the start of the current campaign. The sources also include his quoted reaction after the homer, in which he expresses frustration that it has taken so long. Overall, the coverage centers on his first seasonal home run, the distance of the hit, and the length of the streak he stops with the effort.
