Mike Yastrzemski, the grandson of Hall of Famer Carl Yastrzemski who was drafted in 2013, started in left field and is batting seventh for the Giants in his major league debut.
After more than six years in the minor leagues, Mike Yastrzemski — the grandson of Hall of Famer Carl Yastrzemski — made his major league debut Saturday after being called up for the first time.
Yastrzemski started in left field for the San Francisco Giants and is batting seventh against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
Yastrzemski, 28, was traded to the Giants in March by the Baltimore Orioles, with whom he made his first big league spring training this year.
Drafted by Orioles in 2013, Yastrzemski rose quickly in the organization before his career stalled.
