After the win, Jazz Chisholm Jr. was asked about Jones (via YES Network).
Meredith Marakovits: “And you look at Spencer Jones, just a rookie. Have you been impressed with the way he seems to have settled in at the plate?”
Chisholm Jr.: “Oh yeah. He’s been doing a great job. He’s been finding a lot of barrels at the plate, man. I’m just happy that he’s finding his groove, and it’s just right in time.”
After the 7-3 win, @M_Marakovits caught up with Jazz on the field.
Jones was picked in the 1st round of the 2022 MLB Draft out of Vanderbilt.
He made his MLB debut earlier this season.
Right now, the 25-year-old is batting .245 with 45 hits, nine home runs, 28 RBIs, 27 runs and nine stolen bases in 66 games.
