About Last Night: Number 664

Sure, the story of last night’s game was CC Sabathia being a stopper once again, shutting down the Royals for seven innings and ending the Yankees’ four game losing streak, but I wanted to look at Alex Rodriguez’s ninth inning home run because let’s be honest, he really had no business hitting that ball 393 feet.

Look at where the ball is. It’s low, it’s moving to the inside of the plate and he was still able to reach down and hit it to the opposite field for a home run!
