"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."

With all the off days in the ALDS, why do the Yankees have to go to more than 10 pitchers? Schlittler gets 2 starts, Cole gets 2 starts. & Fried gets a start. Then you have Warren piggybacking Fried and Rodón piggybacking Cole. Then the pen is Bednar, Blackburn, Headrick, Schreiber, & Hill, Yarbrough, or Weathers. Yeah, I know, they probably go to 11, Grrrrrrr!!!!!
I can definitely see because of all the days off that Judge gets put on the roster and plays in Games 3+4. Judge playing on that crap in the Trop in Game 5 scares me though.
To me, Austin Wells would have to be named the MVP of the 2 game WC set. Had hits…
