My whole life I said if I ever make my debut i’m going to swing at the first pitch… I dreamed of hitting it 500 feet but I think I hit it 30 feet.

The guys are awesome to me all of them and they kind of treat me like I’ve been apart of the family.
When asked how long he’d be in the majors:
Yeah I haven’t heard a word I’m just going to go out ever day and try and perform and help the team win.
