Marcelo Mayer's sweet left-handed swing was on display during Wednesday night's Boston Red Sox-Tampa Bay Rays matchup at Fenway Park.

Mayer, Boston's No. 2 prospect, took Rays starter Zack Littell deep twice for the first two Fenway Park homers of his promising career. The first homer came in the second inning and was a 418-foot solo shot down the right field line:

In the fourth inning, Mayer blasted his second homer 410 feet in the same location:

Mayer, 22, became the youngest Red Sox player with a multi-homer game since Rafael Devers in 2018.

With the "Big Three" of Mayer, Kristian Campbell, and No. 1 prospect Roman Anthony finally on the big-league roster, the youth movement in Boston is in full effect. Anthony was the story of Tuesday's game vs. the Rays as he propelled the Red Sox to victory with a two-run double for his first MLB hit.

Mayer is up to three homers on the season. His first career homer came at Yankee Stadium on June 6.
