I woke up this morning still pumped up about last night’s win. That was a pretty awesome moment considering everything Slade Heathcott has been through all the years, between his injuries and alcoholism. The Yankees needed a big hit and the homegrown guy came through. So great. So, so great.
Today is another day though. The Yankee and Heathcott have to turn the page and focus on tonight, another important game — they’re all important games now — in both the AL East and wildcard races. Adam Warren is making his first start since late-June.
