Just got home from Scranton. Severino is indeed alive and he pitched, threw 50 pitches I think. No wincing, no hamstring grabbing. Had some three-ball counts early but got better as the game went on. He did give up a homerun and it was smoked but overall looked pretty good.
I just put on the archived radio broadcast. You can hear the 10000 Bronx children so happy to be there chanting Letd Gi Yankees. When Volpe gets the slam I hope John gives the crowd mic some airtime.
John is clearly ailing. His voice cracked on the DJ HR.
Suzyn said John “had a big birthday coming up” when suggesting she’s he was going to give him a silver duct tape covered mallet as a present. Wikipedia says he was born in ‘38 and thats not a round number birthday. Unless every birthday is a big birthday when you’re over 80…. But John famously lied about his age. Did Suzyn drop the dime? Is he really going to be 90?
Either way, he’s sick, and he ain’t going to Toronto. Will he bail on the Rays this week? I might. Pain avoidance. I will if he does thats for sure.

ReplyDeleteJohn’s voice is weak today. :/
ReplyDeleteJohn let it all hang out on Bauers HR last night. Really got into it. Didn't have much left for today.

I take it back…. John Sloss (aka Sterling) was 1 year 5 months as of 1940 census. So he’s going to be 85 and that the “big birthday”
