Juan Francisco homered to help give the Dominican Republic a four-run, first-inning lead, then hit a tie-breaking, two-run double off Seunghwan Oh of South Korea in a five-run eighth inning of a 10-6 victory Saturday that earned the Olympic baseball bronze medal.

Melky Cabrera had four hits for the Dominicans (3-3), who won a baseball medal for the first time.

South Korea (3-4), the 2012 gold medallist, took a 6-5 lead in a four-run fifth inning against five pitchers. Kang Baek-Ho hit a go-ahead single.

Oh (2-1), a 39-year-old right-hander who pitched in Major League Baseball for St. Louis, Toronto and Colorado from 2016-19, blew a save for the second time in the tournament.
