On Saturday, Luke Voit will play his first game since a Jun. 30 abdominal strain forced him to the IL. New York Yankees fans hope the big first baseman picks up right where he left off.
The 28-year-old slugger suffered his setback in the middle of a 4-for-4 game against the Boston Red Sox in London. The effort raised his slash line to a stellar .280/.393/.509.
ESPN’s Coley Harvey tweeted the Bombers’ lineup out Saturday morning. Voit is batting third, sandwiched between Aaron Judge and cleanup hitter Gary Sanchez:
The birthday boy, DJ LeMahieu, is back at third today as Luke Voit returns to the lineup.
