Dayan Viciedo, who finished 4th in the AL in home runs with 36 in 2015, chipped in a solo home run for Chicago in the bottom of the sixth. For the game, the designated hitter had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 2 RBI.

San Francisco manager called the blowout loss "a real dud."
