Picture 2 instantly reminds me of Karate Kid lol
“Do you make Yoshi give you shoulder rides too?”
“Indeed, I do”
This is beyond awesome ! real Sensei vibes from Yada.
Kirsten was interviewing the pitching coach Connor McGuiness, and he kept calling him Yoda Sensei. Total respect for this master Yoda from the whole team.
I love it. His approach clearly works for Yama and I know there’s a lot to be said to using the body as a whole.
What, the move to shortstop wasn’t enough, now he’s considering pitching?
RF SS P C … just keeps moving closer to the booth.
Yoshinobu in the last picture wondering if he’s gonna be supplanted with Mookie being Yada new apprentice.
Reminds me I need to pick up some blue Jordan 1’s before the season starts.
Mookie gonna be tossing bowling balls soon just like Yama with his arrows.
