With Gallo now with the Dodgers,went 1-for-23 with just an infield single before a double in a loss Friday night to the Cardinals and Aaron Hicks slipped into an 0-for-29 slump, entering Saturday without an extra-base hit since July 9.
Still, two hits in 33 plate appearances, with just the one extra-base hit, is not what the Yankees were expecting when they acquired the 28-year-old for the stretch run. Some scouts believed his power might tick up once he got to the Yankees, given their preference for hitting the ball in the air. On the season, Hicks is hitting just .209 with a .642 OPS as a lefty hitter entering play Saturday and the results haven’t been much better from the right side.
