Dickerson dazzles with epic homer

PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. -- Corey Dickerson's epic blast caught everyone's attention in Thursday afternoon's 10-3 Rays victory over the Orioles at Charlotte Sports Park.

Dickerson became the Rays' final piece in an offseason spent trying to improve the offense when they traded Jake McGee to the Rockies to get him. Since arriving, he has been opening his new teammates' eyes with his home runs. But the one he hit Thursday caused some double takes.

In the second inning, with a man aboard, Dickerson connected on a 3-2 pitch from Orioles starter Miguel Gonzalez.
