Yankees’ Jazz Chisholm suffering growing pains at third base
NY Post
WASHINGTON — From the day Jazz Chisholm Jr. made his first career start at third base, Aaron Boone cautioned there would be growing pains. About one month later, after a delayed release, they have started to come in bunches.
After looking smooth at the hot corner in his first 15 starts at third base, Chisholm has made five errors in his past four games.
He did not make an error in the Yankees’ 5-2 loss to the Nationals in the series finale.
“Still learning,” Boone said before Wednesday’s loss. “On balance, it’s been really good to elite [defense]. But there’s things over there that these reps will be really valuable for him. These plays will be really good learning things for him moving forward. … It’s part of the growing pains of it a little bit.”
The Yankees still have all of September to get Chisholm more used to the intricacies of third base before the games get pressurized in October.
In the meantime, the left-handed hitter has continued to provide an impact with his bat, belting his ninth home run in his 20th game as a Yankee in Wednesday’s loss.
