Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Sal Frelick had an incredible MLB debut on Saturday against the Atlanta Braves, making strong defensive plays and going three-for-three with two RBI, one of those coming on a sac fly in the bottom of the eighth inning to give the Brewers a 4-3 lead, which they closed out the game with. Sal Frelick was on MLB Network and described what it was like to have the support from the fans in his first game.

“Yeah, it was surreal,” Frelick said on MLB Network. “And I think you touched on it, that I think was what I'll remember more so than the hits or the catches. I think going out and hearing the fans say my name or get excited when I come up to the plate that's what you dream about, so that was super fun and I'm going to remember it.”
