The Chicago Cubs called up outfielder Christopher Morel from AA on Tuesday, rewarding the 22-year-old with a chance at the big leagues. And he made a great first impression.

Morel hit his first career home run in the Cubs’ 7-0 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday evening as he came in as a pinch hitter in the seventh inning. The outfielder hit the home run off position player Paul DeJong but regardless, the ball was crushed and Morel showed his excitement while rounding the bases:
