Well...we found it!!! Joe got his first home run with the Naps on Saturday September 17, 1910 against the Washington Nationals. The homerun came in the eighth inning off of Bob Groom, it was the longest hit recorded to centerfield at League Park that season, driving in one run ahead of him. See the newspaper account at (right hand column article):

I am sure we do, would take some searching to find, but we pretty much have all articles from Joe's big league career.
