That second tweet was Jackson Fristoe. Give up 3 runs, walk 2, but strike the last guy out. Fist Pump.
But Bucket Boy has been watching all this too. I don't buy the National Championship immunity we toss around. The Yankees would fire a coach if he won the 2021 series but only won 60 games in the next two seasons. Gone.
