PHOENIX — This has been a big week for Arizona Diamondbacks youngsters hitting their first major league home runs, as Jordan Lawlar put himself on the board Thursday against the Atlanta Braves.
Lawlar attacked a first-pitch fastball from Braves right-hander Reynaldo Lopez and slugged it 424 feet to left-center field, a no-doubter that landed about a dozen rows back.

Lawlar is the second Diamondbacks player to hit his first career home run during this opening homestand, as Jose Fernandez captured attention by hitting two home runs in his big league debut on Tuesday against the Detroit Tigers.
Thursday was Lawlar’s 48th major league game, and his first home run was a couple years in the making (126th plate appearance). He debuted in September 2023, struggled with injuries in 2024 and went through an up-and-down 2025 campaign.
The 23-year-old hit 11 home runs in 63 minor league games last year and clubbed four more during a stellar Cactus League performance this spring.
Lawlar made the Opening Day roster for the first time out of spring training, earning a starting role as an outfielder. He has fielded his new position well and entered Thursday hitting .313 with a double in his first five games.
