Clint Frazier Has Big Night In His Return To The Majors As New York Sweeps Atlanta In The Bronx

Last season was about The Next Man Up mentality for New York!

Why?

Because of injuries to New York’s starting lineup.

Wednesday night was the same mentality versus Atlanta in the finale in the Bronx.

Why?

Because Aaron Judge wasn’t in the starting lineup.

Why?

Because of lower body tightness which included his hips, calves and hamstrings.

Manager Aaron Boone said that he thought it was result of playing four games at Tropicana Field verses Tampa Bay. “according to an article by Bryan Hoch on mlb.com

Because Aaron Judge didn’t play Clint Frazier who like Aaron Judge is a right fielder for the team that wears the pinstripes was able to make his presence felt in the finale as well as the 6-3 win over Atlanta in the Bronx.

How?

The right fielder homered in his first at bat off Huascar Ynoa but that wasn’t all he did in his return to the team that wears the pinstripes as he also singled in the third inning and doubled in the fifth to a triple shy of the cycle. according to an article by Bryan Hoch on mlb.com

While New York swept Atlanta and won the series, Atlanta meanwhile like they did in the opening game in the Bronx on Tuesday night they suffered another loss to New York.

Why?

Huascar Ynoa who was Atlanta’s opener surrendered back-to-back homers to Gary Sánchez and Clint Frazier before exiting in the second inning. Tyler Matzek and Josh Tomlin, who have been two of the key pieces in a strong bullpen, both allowed a pair of runs before the end of the fifth.”according to an article by Mark Bowman on mlb.com

New York is off on Thursday before they begin a four game series against their American League East rival Boston in the Bronx who unlike New York is last in the division with a record 6-12 while New York is leading the division with a record of 12-6. “according to https://www.mlb.com/yankees/standings
