i am glad EJ brought it up earlier. I have also said it a few times this postseason. Volpe is playing much better than his numbers show. one blatant error, but it was not from being lax or unfocused. he was trying to make a difficult play

Meanwhile, the Dodgers in LA were "snakebit" by the Mets, almost literally. There was a real live snake that found its way into the Dodgers dugout. Doesn't surprise me. On one occasion, I was walking down a sidewalk in LA, and spotted a snake slithering on it, so they are around here.

Didn’t watch most of the game…was Rizzo hurt or just pulled as a precaution? Was surprised to see Cabrera out there.

"This charming and meticulously researched book will remind you of baseball’s power to change and enrich lives far beyond the diamond."

—Jonathan Eig, New York Times best-selling author of Luckiest Man, Opening Day, and Ali: A Life

From Compton to the Bronx.jpg

"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."
