Yankees 11, Rays 4: Sir Didi stars in Yankee Stadium opener

The home opener was worth the wait. After getting snowed out Monday, the Yankees opened the Yankee Stadium portion of their schedule Tuesday evening against the Rays, and their shortstop had a record-setting performance in the 11-4 win. Love this team, you guys.

Sir Didi The Cleanup Hitter
Three years ago Didi Gregorius started the season so poorly there were “De-Rek Je-Ter!” chants at Yankee Stadium. During the home opener Tuesday, there were “Di-Di!” chants ringing throughout the ballpark. Two homers, one double, one single, one walk, and eight runs driven in.
