In his first start in a big-league Yankees uniform, Anthony Volpe showed more than flashes of his potential.
Top prospect Randy Vasquez hit hard in Yankees’ spring training outing
In the fourth inning, Volpe took another opportunity to show off his legs. The 21-year-old swatted a single to left, then took off for second on a pitch on which the Blue Jays pitched out. It did not matter, with Volpe beating a poor throw. He dusted himself off and a pitch later stole third. Another hard-hit ball but on the ground, which turned into a fifth-inning double play, finished off the official start to Volpe’s exhibition season. Four at-bats, two hits and the ball stung to all parts of the field.Charles Wenzelberg / New York Post
The aggressiveness — both with the bat and on the base paths — stood out for Volpe, who stole 50 bases in 132 total games between Double-A Somerset and Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre last season.
