Steve Pearce Hitting Third Tuesday
6 years agoBoston Red Sox infielder Steve Pearce is starting at first base and hitting third against Yankees starter CC Sabathia in Game 4 of the American League Division Series on Tuesday. First baseman Mitch Moreland (hamstring) remains out of the lineup after injuring himself on Saturday, while infielder Brock Holt will take a seat after posting the first cycle in MLB postseason history on Monday. Pearce is hitting .316 (12-for-38) with three home runs and five RBI in his career against Sabathia, so he'll likely be a popular DFS choice on Tuesday. He also hit a cool .304/.400/.559 with five of his 11 homers and 20 RBI against southpaws in 2018.
