Today on Pinstripe Alley - 5/18/24

Dingers good. Nestor good. Holmes good. White Sox bad. May these points remain the same today. (Yes, Nestor can just have a nice, relaxing day off.)

Today on the site, David will continue his series on profiles of the folks who make the Yankee Stadium atmosphere possible, Jake will handle both the Rivalry Roundup and 1999 Diary. The latter will feature Joe Torre’s return to the managerial post from prostate cancer treatment, alleviating the burden on old friend Don Zimmer (and encouraging him to stay in his bench coach role rather than retire). Later, Nick P. will compare Luis Gil to an old friend from not too long ago, and after the game, and Estevão will praise Marcus Stroman and Alex Verdugo for making quick adjustments to life as a Yankee.
