Pittsburgh Pirates prospect Konnor Griffin made his debut with Double-A Altoona on Tuesday, and it didn't take long for him to show why he's considered the No. 1 prospect in all of baseball.

The 2024 first-round pick singled in his first at-bat before promptly swiping second for his 60th steal of the year. He finished the night going 1-for-4 with an RBI, flashing the hit and speed tools that have earned him a pair of promotions already this season.

Griffin advanced to third on an error but was ultimately tagged out at home.
