The New York Yankees have been having a terrific season to this point. They are in first place in their division and in first place in the American League.
The team’s relentless perseverance and tenacity have been fun to watch. They have been the consummate example of the “next-man-up” doctrine. With their heavy hitters going down, a couple of fringe MLB players stepped in and stepped up.
One of the most entertaining aspects of this team has been their clutch gene and their ability to perform under pressure. Their clutch play has been the reasons for many a win for the Bombers.
