Aaron Boone turned to Jones and J.D. Davis, who in turn went 0-for-6 with four strikeouts and a double play in the Yankees’ 3-2 loss in The Bronx.
The Yankees have been trying to find the right combination to hit on either side of Juan Soto and Aaron Judge.
J.D. Davis walks to the dugout after striking out on a foul tip during the Yankees’ 3-2 loss to the Mets.The Yankees acquired Davis from the Athletics in late June for the purpose of facing left-handers, but he could not get the job done Tuesday. The Yankees faced a string of lefties just after they acquired him before hardly facing any, and then Davis landed on the IL with a stomach flu ahead of the All-Star break.Aaron Boone’s strategy to put little-used Jahmai Jones and J.D. Davis into the lineup did not pay off in the Yankees’ loss.He entered the night with good numbers against lefties — batting .350 with a 1.
Narvaez had entered Saturday’s game against the Rays as a defensive replacement to make his MLB debut and record his first career hit. Even with the Mets starting another lefty on Wednesday, Wells is expected to be back in the lineup to catch Gerrit Cole.
