Marte — starting Friday’s game as a designated hitter — mashed a curveball from Reds left-hander Nick Lodolo over the wall in left field, his 12th home run since he returned from the injured list on May 2. He has homered in three of four games to start this road trip.
Perdomo attacked a first-pitch fastball in the zone and shot it out to left-center field.
That was his second career home run off a lefty and his seventh long ball of the season, which ties a career high.
