Lee Stevens’ Major League Debut Earns Him Angel of Week Honors

Lee Stevens, who batted .300 and drove in six runs in his first week in the major leagues, has been named Angel of the Week by The Times’ Orange County Edition.

Stevens was called up Monday from triple-A Edmonton to replace first baseman Wally Joyner, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list.

Stevens, 23, singled in his first major league at-bat, drove in a run with another single in his second, and doubled in his third, going three for four in his first game.

He hit his first major league home run Friday, a three-run shot off Kansas City’s Bud Black. He has started every game at first base with no errors.

A check for $250 in Stevens’ name will be given to the Boys and Girls Clubs of Orange County.
