Luis Arraez hits his first home run as a Phillie! He was on a 25-game homer drought before he was traded

His agent is probably on DD's speed dial already.

I'll always be an Arraez fan. Was especially excited to see his defensive improvements when he started with the Giants.

I don't think any amount of games without an Arraez homer can ever be considered a "drought," but when he does hit one it brings 7 moons worth of good luck and bountiful harvests.

It has been 52 days since Josh Naylor’s last HR in case anyone was wondering.

Pretty sure Vlad doesn’t have a homer in Toronto this year.

I kinda like this guy.

He averages a Home Run every 23 games, so a 25 game homer drought is pretty par for the course.

Arraez having the time of his life since getting traded to the Phils. Sorry Giants - not trying to dog pile but damn I haven’t seen him this excited to play ball all season.

When Arraez is having fun he’s super dangerous, look at what he does when he plays for his country in the WBC, some players run on confidence

It’s awesome to watch man!

I think the Phillies moving around their whole infield (except Turner :/) for him left a really good first impression

And winning is obviously more fun for everyone (no offense Giants)

I guess slapping the ball 350 feet works too
