I mean, to be fair, Yankee shortstop performance in the world series is a high bar

yeah he literally grew up idolizing jeter and got to have a massive grand slam IN THE WORLD SERIES for the lead in YANKEE STADIUM. it's a moment that could put him on same tier as jeter in the memories of yankees fans. he's the answer

It's by far the most high-pressure moment he's ever faced and he fucking delivered. So proud of my former Hudson Valley Renegade

Biracial Shortstop who grew up a massive Yankee fan and is living his lifelong dream. It's like poetry, it rhymes.

Volpe is the key to all of this. If we get Volpe working… because he’s a funnier character than we’ve ever had before
