Kyle Higashioka hits home run for first big league hit

Higgy finally got his hit.

On Sunday night, Kyle Higashioka snapped an 0-for-22 streak by launching a monster home run against the Red Sox. The Yankees catcher took David Price deep to left in the bottom of the fourth inning. It was a no-doubter off the bat. The only question was if it would stay fair. Higashioka kept it inside the foul pole and the Yankees had a 7 - 0 lead.

The Yankees decided to give him the silent treatment once he returned to the dugout.
