Aaron Hicks Leading Off For Third Straight Game
3 years agoNew York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks is batting leadoff in Tuesday's game against Tyler Alexander and the Detroit Tigers. This will be his third consecutive game in the leadoff spot for the team. He went 3-for-7 with a walk and a run scored over the last two games. Josh Donaldson began the year as the team's primary leadoff hitter, but Donaldson has really struggled out of the gate this year. He's slashing just .200/.256/.325 with 15 strikeouts over 10 games. We could see Hicks continue to lead off regularly for the team if he can stay productive and healthy.
