Boston Red Sox star third baseman Alex Bregman is back in his old stomping grounds, and he showed great familiarity with the building immediately on Monday. In his first at-bat against his former team, the Houston Astros, at Daikin Park in Houston, Bregman clobbered a 350-foot two-run home run to put the Red Sox on the board with a 2-0 lead.

After nine seasons with Astros, Alex Bregman returned to Houston as a member of the Boston Red Sox and showed fans why he was so good as an Astro.

Fans at Daikin Park gave Bregman a nice ovation before his first at-bat, before he took a 1–1 sweeper from Cristian Javier and deposited it in the left field seats for a two-run home run. That gave Boston a 2–0 lead early.
