Prior to this season, Francisco Lindor lined up as many as two or three steps onto the grass for certain hitters.
JUPITER, Fla. — Francisco Lindor is adjusting to the MLB’s new defensive rules.
The elimination of the infield shift means the shortstop remains on the left side of the infield, which Lindor said he likes.Lindor called the new rules “cool,” before adding, “I do feel like I have a wall behind me, an invisible wall, because I can’t touch the grass.” Prior to this season, Lindor lined up as many as two or three steps onto the grass for certain hitters.
And at the start of this spring training, he put his feet just on the grass and took a step in as the pitch was being thrown, but learned that wasn’t allowed.Corey Sipkin for the NY POSTHe added he stood on the grass “all the time” in the past.“I look to my left and I’ve got a lot of ground to cover,” Lindor said. “I look to my right and I’ve got a lot of ground to cover. And then [I say] ‘Don’t touch the grass.’ It feels normal. The one thing different is the grass part.
