Forgive the shameless self-promotion, but I find this quite fitting and topical...

I just dropped a beat tape last week called Summer '91 and for half the track titles, I used '91 Yankee player names.

Feels apropos with this current team.

Why summer of 91?

All that time missed and judge still has 27 long balls :dead:





Only 54 RBI’s though :stopitslime:. This is why the sluggers shouldn’t hit 2nd. Stanton didn’t have that many RBI’s relative to his 59 homers in 2017 either (132) and he hit 2nd in 110 of his 159 games that year. Not a coincidence.

Never understood it, hitters behind him aren't consistent enough to benefit from him on base and the bottom of the line-up sucks. :heh:

Currently at the stadium. In the white bucket hat, 6 rows up behind the right batters box.
