He drove the ball well, and<br />the Toronto pitching gave him respect. Glad to have him back.<br /><br />Tanaka...part outstanding / part things happen. Lets see next time.<br /><br />Opening Day...Yankees have lost six of the last seven. And now...four years in a row.<br />Write it off, and turn the page.<br />Toronto wants out of town before the Yankees turn Eovaldi on them.<br /><br /><br /><br />patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00008211991899947734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-9342277651755425252015-04-06T20:37:18.549-04:002015-04-06T20:37:18.549-04:00I met Ron Blomberg and he is one of the nicest guy...I met Ron Blomberg and he is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet.

But he hurt his back and never got it going again. Just think of these numbers while with the Yankees.<br />.302 BA, 18 HRs per year, 129 BB to 117 SO, 202 RBIs in 355 hits (RBI 57%). Not great numbers you say, no they weren't but considering his back problems started in his first year with the club he still put some nice % numbers.<br />I have heard this guy or that guy is the next Mickey so many times (and never was true) except this guy had the right stroke and the power to go with it, until his back injury. If I remember right (in this case I do), the Yankees Management thought he couldn't hit left-handers well...which was a big mistake because when he was in against them he hit well enough In fact better than well enough! The problem was, they had some right handed 1st basemen and DHs and the Major was a stat guy...leftys can't hit lefty's! Which is stupid!<br />When was the last time they ever said a righty couldn't hit a righty?Ken Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134936968221887101noreply@blogger.com
