Two years ago today on DotF, Frankie Cervelli hit a grand slam and had 5 RBI in High-A Tampa’s win over Dunedin.
In a shocking turn of events, Alan Horne was placed on the DL today. You may remember that he injured his hammy during his start this past Tuesday. Oh, and could this be why the Yanks teach the curveball to all their youngsters? (h/t Joe Filippone for the email)
