Jesse Winker Back In Leadoff Spot; Billy Hamilton Batting Ninth
7 years agoThe Cincinnati Reds went back to a familiar configuration for their lineup in Wednesday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. A day after batting second, outfielder Jesse Winker is back in the leadoff spot, while yesterday's leadoff man, Billy Hamilton, is batting ninth. Hamilton mostly held down the leadoff spot while Winker was sidelined over the weekend with a sore shoulder. The team seems to prefer Winker as the leadoff batter, especially against right-handed pitching, as he's shown the ability to get on base consistently.
