If there is one player who has impressed everyone with his consistent performances, he is Aaron Hicks. The same outfielder who was hailed as one of the biggest failures at the New York Yankees, has been showing his class from the plate after leaving the franchise. Notably, Hicks was always targeted by fans for his poor outings from the plate.
Now, when he is playing better games for the Orioles, Hicks is receiving support from fans from all teams. Most recently, when the Orioles outfielder smashed a home run against his former team, the Yankees, his wife came publicly supported Hicks. It is to be noted that Hicks’ wife is none other than the golf legend Tiger Woods’ niece.
