Yankees game 28 lineup: 5/6/15
Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new second baseman...for tonight. Jose Pirela completed his rehab assignment and has rejoined the Yankees squad in Toronto. Hoping to create a spark at second, and in the bottom of the lineup, Pirela will get his first opportunity to turn heads and win the job. Though Stephen Drew has provided timely power and showed the ability to drive in runs, his abysmal .167 BA leaves much to be desired. Pirela was red hot in AAA Scranton-Wilkes barre with a .579/.600/.947 line in 19 ABs.
