Today on Pinstripe Alley - 3/29/24

Photo by New York Yankees/ Waking up to an undefeated season still in line. The Yankees put all the dramatics that we didn’t get over the past postseason and threw it into Game 1 of 162 for 2024. It had everything — an immediate deficit, a major comeback, and ninth inning dramatics all centered on their newest superstar. That’s a packed event, and if you were around for the mid-day action you got to witness quite a show. If you were looking for the sequel, sadly we’re already running into a streaming exclusive, so perhaps follow along with us instead! More on...

The Yankees went down 4-0 to perhaps their most hated rival early, and the second-guessers were already out. Instead we had a game that will probably rank as one of the best wins of the year once the club has (hopefully) compiled another 94 or so, with a thrilling comeback win secured by some defensive brilliance from Lisan al-Gaib Juan Soto. Nestor Cortes had a very odd...

NYY @ HOU: Nestor Cortes vs. Framber Valdez

Photo by Bob Levey/ Chapter 1 of 162 begins now. We’ve made it, friends. Opening Day has arrived.

The left arm of a man I sing — a hero brought home by Fate, Destined to become the first to leave the back fields of Tampa And tab the rubber in the trashbangers’ shores. Smitten of injuries he was in his arm and hamstring, On account of the savage memory of the baseball gods. Many losses he bore too, while he took the mound, Began the season, and set out to bring the hunk of metal back to the Bronx. Tell me, Muse, how it all began — how did the mustached southpaw, The master of...
