Does a home run end the game?

In baseball, a walk-off home run is a home run that ends the game. Thus the losing team (the visiting team) must then “walk off” the field immediately afterward, not finishing the inning, and the winning team (the home team) can “walk off” the field with the win. The winning runs must still be counted at home plate.

What happens when a player hits a home run?

A home run occurs when a batter hits a fair ball and scores on the play without being put out or without the benefit of an error. In that situation, the batter is awarded all four bases, and any runners on base score as well. The batter can circle the bases at his leisure, as there is no threat of him being thrown out.

Removing those 15 slams changes the figure only in hundredths of a percent, so 5.0\% is still a reasonable rate.
