Spencer Jones Blasts Homer Wednesday
Spencer Jones went 1-for-4 with a solo home run against Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday. Jones got the scoring started in the game with a 443-foot blast off starter Alek Manoag in the top of the first inning. It was the lefty slugger's second home run of August after he belted 11 in July. Overall, it hasn't been a kind stretch for Jones, as he is slashing .159/.250/.261 with a 7:26 BB:K ratio in 69 at-bats. Predictably, Jones has fared much worse against same-handed pitchers this year, with a .719 OPS against lefties compared to a 1.058 OPS against righties. Jones has still been incredible at Triple-A this season despite the glaring hit tool concerns, and it wouldn't be too surprising if he were given a shot in the majors before the season ends.
