Morel went down 0-2 in the count before he hit the dinger.

"I concentrated. And I said, 'I can do it. I can do it. I've done it before, so I can do it right now.' That's what I was thinking," Morel said.

Contreras jumped over the dugout railing and started to celebrate.

"I've known this guy for a really long time, and he makes me proud," Contreras said after the game. "It was amazing. He told me [he would homer], and I felt like he was going to get something done. But I was thinking of a base hit. Just a base hit. Just blooper. Just something positive. And once I saw the ball going out, I was like, that was a no-doubt. That kid has some pop in his bat."

Morel was called up to the big leagues on Monday. He was in the top 25 on the Cubs’ prospects list, according to MLB Pipeline.
