You see how as SOON as he hit the ball he ran it out? Most MLB players now either watch the hit or jog to first. Even at his age he ran it out. Amazing.
A lot has changed since he retired (for the worse)
Yeah, and then they lost the game 10-4 which is why it’s never shown on Yankee Classics.
(I was there that night.)
That’s my clutch Captain right there!
You can argue that nothing positive has happened since this man retired. He knew how to be a good captain because he lead with example. Playing hard and hustling every single game.
Sadness and mediocrity is what we have now.
Volpe will never reach 1000. Well, other than strikeouts and leaving RISP.
