Trayce Thompson, the Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder and brother of Klay Thompson, left the yard three times in Saturday night's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Thompson got his first start of the season on Saturday, and slugged three home runs while driving in eight runs. It was an impressive showing for Thompson, who also made an appearance with Great Britain in the World Baseball Classic last month. 

As previously mentioned, Trayce Thompson is the brother of Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson. Klay reacted to his brother's big game with a post on his Instagram story:

It was a rough spring for Trayce Thompson, as the 32 year old outfielder went just 3-35 at the plate in spring training. Not getting an opportunity to play until the Dodgers‘ third game of the season, Thompson made the most of this first opportunity, and will likely see more time in the starting lineup going forward.

Always supportive of his brother's baseball career, Klay Thompson made sure to shout out Trayce after this big time performance. Klay said before the MLB season started that his brother Trayce was going to have a big season for the Dodgers, and the outfielder is already off to a great start.

Between the Warriors and the Dodgers, there is a lot to root for in the sports world for the Thompson family.
