After seven years in the minors with the Dodgers, O`Koyea Dickson made his major league debut in 2017.

The right-hander, drafted by the Dodgers in the 12th round in 2011 out of Sonoma State, hit 24 home runs in 116 games for Triple-A Oklahoma City, hitting .246/.328/.484. In the minors in 2017 Dickson started 57 games in left fiel, 22 games in right field and five times at first base.

That earned Dickson his first major league call-up, when rosters expanded on Sept. 1. It capped an incredible week for Dickson, whose son was born just a few days earlier.
