PHOENIX — LUUUUUUKE!
That has become the battle cry for these Accidental Yankees. The cheer will be heard Tuesday night at Chase Field from Yankee fans when Luke Voit comes to the plate in the first inning against the Diamondbacks’ Zack Greinke.
The Yankees are on an inspiring roll and Voit, rightfully named the AL Player of the Week on Monday, is at the center of all the winning.
Everyone loves a story of overcoming great odds — and Voit is just that, discarded by the Cardinals to the Yankees last July 29 in a trade that was a steal for Brian Cashman & Co.
