Keeping tabs on every home run for the New York Yankees this season. Mr. October, Reggie Jackson (and maybe Paul Simon for that matter), calls him Al. You probably know him best as A-Rod. As he often does, Alexander Emanuel Rodriguez went deep on Sunday night baseball. So, as someone predicted in this space, the Yanks took two-of-three from the New York Mets, winning the Subway Series finale, 6-4.
In the first frame, A-Rod got the Yanks on the board, homering to right-center, off Jon Niese. It was A-Rod’s fifth home run of the season, 314th as a Yankee and the 659th of his career, one shy of Willie Mays for 4th on the all-time list in MLB.
On the season, your Bronx Bombers have 26 home runs.
