WATCH: Trayce Thompson Hits Monster Home Run On His 26th Birthday

Fresh off of returning to the field after months of injury, Trayce Thompson had two reasons to celebrate this afternoon.

Today being his birthday was reason enough to celebrate. The absolute bomb he hit in the 3rd inning of the game against the Mariners, is an even better reason. (Link to video from MLB.com in tweet):

When all you want to do is go for a nice stroll around the park on your birthday. #LetsGoDodgers
