Recent theoretical calculations indicate that the gradient of baryonic chemical potential (analogous to the electric field) can induce a sizeable spin Hall current in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ $\sim$ 10 GeV. Furthermore, at the RHIC Beam Energy Scan (BES) energies, the sign as well as the pattern of energy dependence of the difference between the harmonics of spin polarization of $\Lambda$ and $\overline{\Lambda}$ hyperons, can be significantly different with and without the presence of baryonic spin Hall current~\cite{ref2,ref3,ref4}. In this talk, we will present the harmonic coefficients of $\Lambda$ hyperons' spin polarization ($P_{x} sin(2\Delta\phi)$, $P_{y} cos(2\Delta\phi)$, $P_{z} sin(2\Delta\phi)$) as functions of transverse momentum, rapidity, and collision centrality in RHIC BES-II Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 7.7, 14.6, 19.6, and 27 GeV. These measurements serve as the first experimental probe of the predicted baryonic SHE in heavy-ion collisions. \normalsize \begin{thebibliography}{99} \bibitem{ref1} Y.
