Carpal tunnel syndrome for the scoreboard operators? Torn rotator cuffs for the Yankees’ first- and third-base coaches? Laryngitis for John Sterling?
This was a day to consider the possibilities in The Bronx.
The Yankees’ three most dangerous hitters went deep in the same game Wednesday afternoon, for the first time, and the rest of the industry had to shudder at what occurred and what could come. What if Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton and Gary Sanchez make a habit of this?
Then there’ll be plenty of games like this 7-2 coasting over the terrible Rays at Yankee Stadium, the Yankees’ second straight win and a sweep of this quick series, as each of the three sluggers contributed a two-run homer.
