A former member of the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns played a little long ball on Wednesday night.

Los Angeles Angels catcher Jonathan Lucroy hit his 6th home run of the season, in an 8-7 loss to the Minnesota Twins.

A two-run shot in the 6th inning, Lucroy's homer cut the Angels' deficit to 6-3 at the time.

Lucroy is off to a nice start this season, hitting .269 with 6 homers and 19 runs batted in.

The 32-year old Lucroy has also played for the Brewers, Rangers, Rockies, and A's.

A 2016 MLB All-Star, Lucroy has compiled a .276 career average in 9 seasons, to go along with 105 homers and 525 runs batted in.
