Legendary Yankees executive Mark Newman, who was responsible for the team’s recent dynasty, sadly passed away.
Yankees fans are likely riding high after Friday’s doubleheader sweep of the Orioles, which saw the club establish a needed cushion over the other playoff hopeful teams in the AL. Not only did the offense showcase an incredible power surge, but Gerrit Cole finally delivered a lights out performance on the mound in a must-win game.
On that note, we hate to drive a nail into the good vibes, but the Yankees confirmed some sad news moments before first pitch on Saturday against Baltimore.
