Emmanuel Tejeda Collects Five Hits
Yankees prospect Enmanuel Tejeda entered Tuesday’s Arizona Fall League tilt hitting just .176 and in need of a spark. By the end of the game, he had raised his batting average 70 points. The 20-year-old erupted for a five-hit performance, driving in three runs and raising his average to .246. He delivered clutch swings throughout the night, lining a two-run single to right field before adding another RBI with a sharp base hit up the middle. For a young player continuing to find his rhythm, Tuesday’s breakout could be the turning point that jumpstarts a strong finish to his fall campaign.
