DotF: Frazier has another big game in Scranton’s loss

OF Clint Frazier spoke to Conor Foley about some mechanical things he’s been working on since returning from the concussion. Long story short, his leg kick and his hands have been out of sync, and he’s trying to fix that.

Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders (3-1 loss to Rochester)

• CF Clint Frazier: 3-5, 1 R, 1 HR, 1 RBI, 2 K, 1 E (fielding) — here’s video of his first single, second single, and the homer … 13-for-25 (.520) with one triple and two homers in his last six games, so I guess he’s ironing out those mechanics
  
• 2B Tyler Wade: 1-4, 1 BB, 1 K, 1 CS
• 3B Brandon Drury: 1-4, 1 2B, 2 K — his 20-day rehab window expires Tuesday, so the Yankees are going to have to do something here soon

• LHP Daniel Camarena: 5.1 IP, 4 H, 3 R, 3 ER, 3 BB, 8 K, 1 HR, 2/2 GB/FB — 61 of 93 pitches were strikes (66%)
