After having a crazy-hot ALDS for the New York Yankees, Edwin Encarnacion has cooled down in the ALCS against the Houston Astros – a ton.
In Encarnacion’s last 12 at-bats, he’s only recorded one hit. His performance from the ALDS to now are polar opposites.
He’s looked lost in his at-bats thus far. Known for getting into deep counts and making pitchers work, Encarnacion has been swinging at first pitches and making weak contact. He’s been in big spots with the chance of knocking in some huge runs and let his team down.
