Adames Tags Yankees for 5 Hits
Saturday, July 8th , 2017
Willy Adames knows as well as anyone that in baseball, the biggest contracts go to the biggest hitters. At Fenway Park, he made his case to be considered among that group.
The 21-year-old shortstop hammered 5 hits in 5 chances, though the remarkable effort came even as his Boston Red Sox fell, 12-9, to the New York Yankees.
"We made some bad pitches and he took advantage of it," Yankees manager told BNN sportswriters after the game. "Thankfully, we were able to do enough elsewhere that Adames wasn't the difference."
Willy Adames singled in the 1st, hit an RBI double in the 3rd, doubled in the 5th, walked in the 7th, singled in the 9th and singled in the 10th.
On the year, Adames is hitting .269 with 32 hits, 3 home runs, 15 RBIs, .333 OBP and has scored 18 runs.
