Clint Frazier Provides Defense, Offense For New York, Helps Them Snap Their Four Game Losing Streak With Win Over Tampa Bay
The night belonged to Clint Frazier!
When?
Last night!
Where?
Bronx New York!
Why?
Because Clint Frazier who is a left fielder for New York provided defense as well as offense for his team and helped them snap their four game losing streak against Tampa Bay.
How?
Clint Frazier preserved a 3-3 tie by contributing a diving inning-ending catch in right field, stealing a hit from Joey Wendle that would have brought home two runs. With Chad Green on the mound, Wendle lofted a weak fly ball that seemed as though it would elude second baseman Rougned Odor. Frazier charged and snared it at the last possible moment.
Then in the eleventh inning Clint Frazier pummeled an Andrew Kittredge slider for his fifth home run of the season, securing the Yankees’ fifth walk-off win of the year in a 5-3 win.
