In the fifth inning of a contest that pitted the New York Yankees against the Baltimore Orioles, offseason acquisition Josh Donaldson hit his first home run for his new team. The fateful shot was a two-run homer sent just over the right-center-field wall. Donaldson's blast was crucial to ensure a Yankees victory, as it scored the go-ahead run and was just what New York needed to ensure a 5-2 victory in Baltimore.
