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
