During the second game of the three-game series against the Oakland Athletics, Donovan Walton accomplished something for the first time in his MLB career. The third-time call-up went yard for the first time, hitting his first home run for the Mariners.
Normally, a prospect hitting their first home run would be the most exciting part of the day, especially when it is a three-run bomb that puts your team up 3-1.
