He started his career with a 9 game appearance at the end of last season, and went 0-18 at the plate with 6 k's.

He broke his hitless streak with a homer against the Sox on July 1st. He then homered against Atlanta two days later, and just hit another one.

For those not following along, that's 3 major league hits, 3 major league home runs. No idea if that's a record or not, but it sure feels like it should be. Something fun to keep an eye on anyway.

9 people have done it before, including Tony Conigliaro and Mike Greenwell. Trevor Story is the only one who’s gotten to 4.

Oops, sorry, I was going by what they said on YES and must have heard it wrong.

Story's start was insane. I have never seen anything close to that overall to start a career.
