My gosh, a starter going 7 strong innings!  Love it!

A meh start in the old times.

I'm not sure this explains things but maybe?

The swelling roar of the crowd and the swinging strike was just pure music to my ears!

There's no joy in Yankville tonight.

As long as they are The Yankees, they will always be the evil empire!

To be honest, after they moved to the new Stadium, they have lost their mojo.

He almost hit the warehouse and for some weird reason stared Kremer down before doing his 45 second HR trot. Kremer never tried to hit him or anything. Was odd.

Hmm missed that. Scoreboard.....

They made fun of Vlad Jr. for doing his Shhhhhh thing on a solo homer that meant nothing. Pimping a meaningless HR, is I guess the new trend.

Soto doesn't really get a lot of pushback from pitchers for doing his thing.  I don't really have a problem with it as long as he's mostly being good natured about it (though, how good-natured can grabbing your crotch after taking a pitch outside the zone possibly be?)

 

But I'd expect him to get plunked a lot more than he actually does.  I wonder if players actually like him off the field, or if the fact that he's 6'3" 230 dissuades most people from trying to start stuff with him.
