## Resource

Harry Ford made an instant splash in his MLB debut with the Washington Nationals, crushing a home run in his first game despite the team’s loss. A talented catcher with elite athleticism, Ford got the call-up after Drew Miller’s injury and will share catching duties with Keibert Ruiz. His breakout performance marks a major turning point after being stuck in Seattle, where he was blocked by another catcher. The Mariners’ trade for a promising lefty reliever seems like a win-win so far. Ford’s big-league moment proves he belongs—and fans are eager to see how he continues to shine as the season unfolds.
