Jasson Dominguez isn’t slowing down.
Entering Friday, when Dominguez hit third in the lineup for a sixth straight game after hitting fifth in his debut, Dominguez was 6-for-19 with three homers as a lefty and 1-for-5 from the right side.
“He’s gonna be a really good player in this league and it seems like he’s a middle-of-the-lineup kind of guy,’’ LeMahieu said. “There’s hype around him for a reason. We’ve seen in a few games how much talent he has and I’m excited to see what he can do in this game. He’s a special talent.
On Friday against Milwaukee right-hander Colin Rea, for instance, Boone started three lefty hitters, with Dominguez third, fellow rookie Austin Wells hitting fifth and Jake Bauers eighth.“It’s made a lot of sense to have him in that slot and he’s been very productive there,’’ Boone said.
