Austin Wells Surges for Yankees | New York Yankees News

Austin Wells is on fire—after a slow start with a .224 average and just four homers in his first 56 games, he’s exploded since July 1st, smashing six homers and slashing .260/.378/.583. His clutch two-RBI single in extra time Wednesday gave the Yankees the lead and reignited hope as star players sit out. Manager Aaron Boone calls him a renewed threat, vital for an offense needing depth. The key? A swing tweak to hit the ball farther in front of the plate, making pitches look more hittable. If Wells keeps this up, he could be the spark the Yankees need as they heal and push toward contention. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
