The Cincinnati Reds drafted high school outfielder Austin Hendrick with their first-round pick in the 2020 MLB Draft.

On Tuesday night, Hendrick had a two-home run game for the Chattanooga Lookouts.

The 24-year-old has really struggled over five minor league seasons, slashing .210/.295/.365 with 706 strikeouts in 490 games, but he has shown some promise in Double-A Chattanooga this season.

He is slashing .253/.332/.433 with 20 extra-base hits and 83 strikeouts in 71 games this season.

You can watch both of his home runs from last night below:
