You all know the drill by now so I’m jumping right in. I am not the type to panic in April. But I am the type to get pissed off in April. Tuesday night was a shitshow of epic proportions and the Yankees should be embarrassed. I’m sick of the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde thing […]

You may wonder why I chose the title for this installment of About Last Night and well, it’s because Derek Jeter and his ownership team down in Miami stripped the Marlins down so much that they’re fielding an AAAA team and it was just the remedy the Yankees needed. I’ve missed being able to watch a […]

Welcome back, everyone! It seems like forever since the Yankees have played a game. They will take on Giancarlo Stanton’s former team this week and what better way to prepare for this series than for me to spew some random thoughts? Let’s begin… This weekend was so strange. Even though the Yankees didn’t play for […]

Aaron Hicks’ first night off the DL was not a fun welcome back—he went 0-4 with a strikeout in a loss to the Red Sox. On Friday night against Detroit, Hicks fared a lot better. In his first at-bat of the night, Hicks hit a fly ball to right-center off starter Mike Fiers that caromed […]

Thanks to the Yankees’ testy victory on Wednesday in Fenway Park, Thursday’s contest became the rubber game. They could have salvaged the series with a win after being humiliated on Tuesday night but Thursday night’s starter Sonny Gray made sure that wouldn’t happen. Gray just didn’t have it and the Yankees found themselves behind 6-0 after […]

I’m going to admit something I probably shouldn’t admit but here it goes: I didn’t watch a second of last night’s game. You know why? Because I figured the Yankees would lose. Call it a hunch, call it self-preservation or call it ‘the Yankees in April against the Red Sox’ but I knew not to […]

Author’s note: Hi everyone, this was going to be a longer, in depth piece about Friday night’s marathon of a game but I couldn’t bring myself to rehashing it. My aoologies. -SG Last night sucked. Let’s not do that again.

Masahiro Tanaka has a home run problem. On Thursday, the right-hander was cruising through his start against the Orioles until the seventh inning when he gave up a single to Jonathan Schoop and then threw a slider to Adam Jones that didn’t slide enough and got too much of the plate; Jones hit it over […]

It finally happened. After six agonizing games, the wait is over; Giancarlo Stanton, Gary Sanchez, and Aaron Judge all hit home runs in the same game. For Stanton, it was his first home run in Yankee Stadium while Sanchez and Judge finally hit their first home runs overall. https://mediadownloads.mlb.com/mlbam/mp4/2018/04/04/1906444883/1522875821590/asset_1800K.mp4 Stanton’s shot went 458-feet in dreary […]

I am going to start this post off by saying that the metamorphosis of Didi Gregorius from a defense-first shortstop to a true offensive threat in the Yankees’ lineup has been an absolute joy to watch. He really does belong in the cleanup spot right now especially as Giancarlo Stanton adjusts to being on a […]
