Aaron Hicks' Big Hit Leads To Victory
6 years agoLate in Thursday’s game between the Cleveland Indians and the New York Yankees, the clubs were tied at four runs. Indians ace Corey Kluber was still on the mound when Aaron Hicks stepped up with one on in the eighth. The 28-year-old would put on a terrific plate appearance, fouling off numerous pitches before drilling a go-ahead RBI double to deep center. While his lone hit of the game, Hicks continues to grow as a full-time starter, hitting .283 across his last 15 games and already having broken his personal best for home runs in a season. At this pace, he’ll finish somewhere in the neighborhood of 25 home runs and 75 RBI, a solid fantasy season for those who gave him a chance.
