Minnesota Twins outfielder Eddie Rosario homered on the first pitch he saw in his first Major League at-bat on Wednesday night.

The 23-year-old was called up earlier this week and started Wednesday.

Rosario became the first Twins player to homer on his first big league pitch and just the 29th player in Major League history to accomplish the feat.

"It was an awesome moment," Rosario said. "To have your first-bat and hit the first pitch for a home run. I was just trying to be aggressive."

The last player to homer on the first pitch of a career was Starling Marte with the Pittsburgh Pirates on July 26, 2012.
