OK, this is not "technical" except for the the YouTube video, which is pretty grainy. I give it 1.5 WaterTowers for quality.
But in case you did not know; YeOldeTechy grew up on Long Island and lived and breathed the Yankees as a kid. My Yankees: Mantle, Maris, Skowron, Kubek, Boyer, White, Richardson, Lopez, Ford....I was obsessed....later it was Munson, Pepitone, even up to Reggie and Willie Randolph.....
Last year I was in Oakland watching the "new" Yankees play the A's....I was so broken up I could hardly keep from crying...hmmmm, I actually did. It was 46 years (I think) prior to that that that I sat in my last game at Yankee Stadium watching the Yankees with my Dad....I lost it....
I would give anything in the world to strike out like Crystal did today. Actually, Bobby Richardson was my hero (along with Roy White) so I would have dinked it to right for a single.....oh well, he is famous...I am not.
Enjoy the video...
