Daily dose of Yordan (Game 23)

At bat 1: 3 pitch strikeout swinging

At bat 2: 3 pitch sacrifice fly left, 1 RBI

At bat 3: 2 pitch flyout to left

At bat 4: 7 pitch double to left

While it may look like a meh night for Yordan, with just the bloop double to show for his 4 at bats, I still saw a lot of good in his 4 at bats. Yes, he was a bit overly aggressive early on, leading to a quick K and some early flyballs, but he did seem to adjust for his last at bat, which was a trademark Yordan at bat. He got himself into a 2-2 count but then worked back with a tough foul and a borderline ball before roping one into center for a double. Overall while the numbers don’t say it his ability to adjust as he did mid game to work with what the pitchers gave him is extremely promising to see, and should pay dividends coming forwards.
