T.J. Friedl

After being called up from Triple-A affiliate Louisville the day before, T.J. Friedl entered his first career big-league game in the bottom of the sixth inning as a pinch-hitter. The 26-year-old from Sewickley, Pennsylvania, connected on the first pitch of the at-bat, delivered from Tony Gonsolin, and sent it well into the right-field seats for his first career hit and homer. "I remembered running at third and heading home to really live in that moment and just embrace everything going on. That's a one-time thing," Friedl said. "You'll never get that back. You never get your first hit back. For that hit to be a home run, it's so meaningful."
