Red Sox's David Hamilton: Homers off bench

Hamilton hit a solo home run in his lone plate appearance in Sunday's 11-3 win over St. Louis.

Hamilton entered as a pinch hitter in the ninth inning and belted his second home run of the season. He's hit in four straight games and has gone 5-for-11 over that stretch, but his playing time has largely dried up since Ceddanne Rafaela was moved from center field to shortstop. Hamilton's started just five times over the last 21 games.
