J.J. Matijevic earns first career with HR in win Sunday

Astros rookie outfielder J.J. Matijevic made just his sixth career MLB appearance Sunday, going 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 4-3 win over the White Sox.

Fantasy Impact:

The rookie's home run was a bit of a cheap one, traveling just 343 feet. But, they all count the same in the box score. The home run was Matijevic' first career base hit as well, making Father's Day a special day for him and his dad, which he talked about afterward. The left fielder is not likely to see many at-bats this season and should not be considered worthy of fantasy attention.
