almost as close as the score indicates

the Yankees played an all-around game

Fried, Jazz, Geisham the Overpaid and a great little contribution from McMahon

after Cabellero seemed to forget himself

I think either Fried or Blackburn could play SS!!

There was a missed opportunity to get Amed Rosario some playing time and some AB’s…I doubt that he would have kicked away six runs at third base. None the less it is always nice to beat the Astros! Cabby needs to watch that temper!

Replying to

I thought that he would replace Stanton out in left

but I can understand why you would wish to see him get some ABs against a lefty pitching.

that's why they got him

but for tonight's game they needed to defend their 2 run lead

until, very suddenly, Grisham gave them such a large lead that they didn;t realy need any more good ABs from anybody.

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
