Yesterday — Monday, June 28 — marked Opening Day for the Arizona and Florida Complex Leagues (formerly named the Arizona and Gulf Coast Leagues, respectively).
Batting leadoff for the FCL Yankees was the man, the myth, the legend: Jasson Dominguez.
Dominguez, 18, batted first and played center field for the FCL Yankees. He finished the day 0-for-2, striking out and popping out to third. He also walked against the FCL East Tigers.
Dominguez received a $5.1 million signing bonus from the Yankees in July 2019, a number matched only by Oakland shortstop prospect Robert Puason for the highest in the 2019-20 international amateur free-agent class.
