Sorry it’s ten-zip on SNY, I’m channel surfing.
Who is Justin Christian and why is he playing left field for the Yankees and how did he get a real number (#17 not something in the sixties).
They showed Hawkins warming up and it reminded me that he got booed into not wearing Paul O’Neill’s #21.
That begs the question – are they going to retire Paulie O’s number? He was a leader, won a lot of rings, and in my mind a Hall of Famer. Some day they will retire 2 and 6 and twenty years from now probably even #13. At some point it gets silly.
Retire 21 or give it out? I’ll vote give it out. But I’d also unretire #44 and #1. Retired numbers should be even rarer than the Hall.
