ATLANTA (AP) -- Arizona first baseman Mark Grace left Game 5 of the NL Championship Series in the fifth inning because of a tight right hamstring.

Grace scored the Diamondbacks' first run in the fourth inning Sunday night. After singling, he went to second on a walk and came home on Danny Bautista's single.

Grace fielded his position in the bottom of the fourth but was replaced by pinch-hitter Erubiel Durazo in Arizona's next at-bat.

Durazo hit a two-out, two-run homer against Tom Glavine, giving the Diamondbacks a 3-1 lead as they tried to wrap up their first trip to the World Series.

Grace was 6-for-16 (.375) in the NLCS
