Chris Robinson Crushes Homer for First MLB Hit

By April Whitzman, @AlleyCat17

Every player remembers his first hit in the Majors. This rings especially true for San Diego Padres catcher Chris Robinson, who spent nine seasons in the Minors. And after five at-bats, Robinson not only got his first Major League hit, but also his first home run. His teammates made sure he'd never forget it, dousing him in water in the tunnel to the clubhouse after the game.
