The inspirational Bronx baseball story has officially cemented itself.
On Friday, veteran righthanded-pitcher Danny Farquhar has signed a minor-league deal with the New York Yankees after receiving official medical clearance.
Farquhar, 31, is a seven-year veteran who’s enjoyed stints with the Seattle Mariners, Tampa Bay Rays, and, most recently, the Chicago White Sox. He received a cup of coffee (three-game stint) back in 2011 with his first big-league club, the Toronto Blue Jays.
On April 20, 2018, Farquhar made waves when he collapsed in the Sox dugout in a game against the Houston Astros.
