Watch: Harper obliterates 25th HR in Banda's D-Backs debut

Joe Camporeale / USA TODAY Sports

Anthony Banda likely won't forget his MLB debut, thanks in part to a monster home run from Bryce Harper.

Banda, 23, who is making his first big-league start for the Arizona Diamondbacks, had Harper on a full-count with two outs in the first inning Saturday. But the Washington Nationals superstar evidently did not care, as he cranked a massive solo shot to right field.

The home run - which is Harper's 25th of the year - eclipses his total of 24 in 2016, which he hit across an additional 76 games.
