The New York Yankees fans were mesmerized to see Juan Soto’s first glimpse in Yankee gear. The slugger reported for spring training in a NY hoodie and donned the iconic pinstripes for the very first time for a pre-season photoshoot. Since then, the fans cannot get enough of the generational talent.
The New York Yankees front office risked everything to land Juan Soto via a blockbuster trade earlier this off-season. And therefore, the generational hitter is expected to unleash its full potential in the Bronx. While the season is still weeks away, Soto displayed a short trailer of the upcoming hit stint during his first live BP session against Clarke Schmidt.
Juan Soto Hits His First Home Run For Yankees In BP Session!
New York Yankees’ newest superstar, Juan Soto, has been the apple of the fan’s eyes ever since he arrived for spring training last week. Capturing him in the Yankee gear is nothing short of a surreal dream for the Yankee nation. Meanwhile, Soto also turned up the heat and didn’t disappoint the crowd who came to Tampa to watch his bat swing. After getting struck out thrice against Nestor Cortes, the generational slugger sought redemption against Clarke Schmidt. He swung a pitch into the orbit and aimed over the center field. The sound of the hit received massive applause from the crowd as the fans cheered for the slugger to boost his confidence.
However, Juan Soto wasn’t truly happy with his towering hit. He wanted it to land over the center field wall of George Steinbrenner field but fell shot as the ball rebounded after hitting the wall. Regardless, the swing counted as a home run. That being said, Soto surely won over the Yankees nation’s heart in his first live BP session in the pinstripes. A whole season is still lying ahead of him to not just win over the heart but also bring the glory of the World Series championship home. A lot lies of Juan Soto and Aaron Judge this coming MLB season as far as meeting expectations is concerned. Moreover, for Soto, the stakes are higher as he is an impending free agent. A good season with the bat is perennial for the generational talent to re-establish his dominance in the league.
