Nor was it shocking to see what his organization-mate Willie Calhoun did. The system's No. 4 prospect had 27 home runs of his own with Double-A Tulsa this past season. He's the type of hitter who creates a different sound when he makes contact. It's consistent and loud, as it was in his first three at-bats.

It continued with a hard single to right field in the third inning off of a 95-mph fastball, the eighth pitch of that at-bat.
