Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Johan Rojas had a memorable first play in the big leagues.
The Phillies were playing the San Diego Padres in Philadelphia on Saturday, one day after Rojas was called up from the minor leagues. Rojas was playing in center field when shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. came up to bat, as a runner was on first base.
Tatis hit a fly ball out towards center field, but Rojas was able to track the ball down and make the catch as he crashed into the outfield wall.
