New York Yankees center fielder Spencer Jones continued his powerful spring, hitting his third home run in four games on Friday with a 427-foot blast in a 17-5 victory over the Twins. All three of Jones' hits this spring have been homers, as he's gone 3-for-8 with four strikeouts and two walks. Notably, his groundout on Friday marked his first non-strikeout out of the spring. The 6-foot-7 slugger is actively working on his swing mechanics to cut down on strikeouts, aiming for improved plate discipline.
