Langford Hits Grand Slam
Wyatt Langford hit his sixth home run of the spring with a grand slam against the Reds. He extended his hitting streak to nine games and he’s now hitting .388/.446/.796. Langford’s home runs have come against Hayden Birdsong, Prelander Berroa, Bryan Shaw, Will Smith and Buck Farmer, so while it hasn’t come against Cy Young winners, it has come against a mix of variety of veteran relievers and a young arms. The Rangers have also been hitting him in premium spots all spring. He’s batted third in 12 games, leadoff three times and cleanup once. He’s not batted lower than cleanup all spring. It’s been a remarkable month and at this point, it’s hard to imagine him not hitting in the middle of the Rangers lineup when the regular season begins.
