The 89th Mid-Summer Classic is still a ways away — July 18 in Washington D.C. to be exact. But it’s never too early to begin the campaign for #SirDidiToDC. That’s right; the Yankees shortstop has reached the point in his career where he deserves to be recognized not only by the fans but his peers.
In Monday night’s final tune-up before opening day on Thursday, Gregorius was at it again. In the top of the first inning, Giancarlo Stanton worked a two-out walk to bring Didi up to the plate.
Facing former Yankee right-hander, Brandon McCarthy, Didi took the first pitch high and inside.
