San Francisco Giants Fantasy Spin
Mike Yastrzemski went 2-for-4 with his first major league homer and two runs scored Friday against the Orioles. Yastrzemski plated a run with a triple in a five-run first inning for San Francisco and chipped in with a solo homer just one inning later. The 28-year-old was originally drafted by the Orioles, so this had to be an extra special night for him. Thanks to the big night at the plate, Yastrzemski is now batting .273/.360/.545 through six games.
Baltimore Orioles Fantasy Spin
Dwight Smith Jr. slugged a grand slam in Friday’s 9-6 win over the Giants. After the Giants plated five runs in the top of the first inning, Smith put the Orioles ahead with his blast against Drew Pomeranz in the bottom of the frame. It was his first career grand slam and it traveled an estimated distance of 442 feet. Smith was hitless over his previous four games, so hopefully this will jolt him back on track.
