SF Giants rookie catcher connects on first career MLB home run
SAN FRANCISCO – One day after he recorded his first Major League base hit, San Francisco Giants rookie catcher Patrick Bailey on Sunday connected on his first big league home run.
Bailey, making his second career MLB start, pounded a belt-high fastball from Jesús Luzardo in the bottom of the second inning as the Giants tied their game with the Miami Marlins 1-1. Bailey, a switch hitter batting from the right side, had seen four four-seam fastballs from Luzardo in the at-bat before he took the fifth one 423 feet over the left field wall at Oracle Park. Per StatCast, exit velocity was measured at 107.4 mph.
Saturday, Bailey singled in the eighth inning for his first big league hit, one of three hits the Giants had in what became a 1-0 Marlins win. He made his MLB debut on Friday, catching the final three innings of San Francisco’s 4-3 win over Miami. The first four innings of Sunday’s game saw four home runs. J.D. Davis connected on a two-run shot to left to give the Giants a 4-2 lead in the third inning. For Miami, Jorge Soler and Nick Fortes connected on solo shots in the first and fourth innings, respectively.
