Saw him homer on his first ever swing. Went and did some yard work outside for a couple hours. I should not have went outside. I missed the best MLB debut in history!

Ridiculous debut. Somebody paid 27 bucks for him in my baseball fantasy league last week. I guess he was worth it.

I saw on X today that a $10 bet (HR in 1st 3 ABs) would have netted over $7M in payouts.

Someone posted that his rookie cards were selling for $150 this morning and tonight they were selling for $1200 on eBay.

Toronto Maple Leafs rookie Auston Matthews scored four goals in his NHL debut against the Ottawa Senators. He scored on his first two shots in the league.

Best since Bo Belinski won his first four major league games, including a no-hitter.  And maybe better than that one, depending on context.

Not better but Wilt Chamberlain 43 pts 28 rbs in his debut was pretty spectacular
