TL;DR Summary

Cincinnati Reds' rookie Elly De La Cruz hits his first MLB home run, a 458-foot bomb, and his first career triple in the same game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. De La Cruz is the game's No. 2 prospect and a budding superstar thanks to his freakish combination of power and speed. He is hitting balls like few Reds have and has one of the highest ceilings in baseball. The Reds are only five games out in the NL Central and four games out of the third and final National League wild-card spot.
