Jackson Holliday wanted just four more things from his MLB debut

Baltimore Orioles second baseman Jackson Holliday.

Jackson Holliday, the top prospect in all of baseball and the newest member of the Baltimore Orioles’ major league roster, had a ton of pressure on his shoulders on Wednesday night.

Not only was he making his MLB debut, but he was doing so at historic Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox.

The expectations are high for Holliday not just because of his status as a top prospect, but also because of his pedigree. His father, Matt Holliday, was a seven-time MLB All-Star, a four-time Silver Slugger and a World Series winner.

Talk about big cleats to fill, that’s the legacy that Jackson will be trying to live up to in MLB.

For now, though, he’s just trying to get his feet wet, and that’s exactly what he did in his first game in the big leagues. He started at second base and batted ninth for the Orioles. While he did finish 0-for-4 with two strikeouts, he did notch his first RBI with a groundout in the 7-5 win.

He didn’t immediately light the world on fire, but for a first-timer, that’s a solid start.

“I’d like to have gotten a few hits, but the overall experience was pretty incredible,” Holliday said after the game, per CBS Sports. “To go out there and win and have an RBI, I mean, it’s pretty awesome … I can’t ask for more, except for maybe, like, four hits.”

The hits are sure to come for the young Holliday, who is still just 20 years old.

In 18 games in Triple-A last season, he slashed .267/.396/.400 with an average exit velocity of 90 mph.
