But when it’s hard to win, when no one seems to find the sweet spot or remembers how to make a breaking ball dive out of the zone, that’s when you find out what kind of player you are.
And what kind of team this is going to be. You get to find out if you and guy next to you is willing to dig down deep and find that something special.
Because the more you find it, the more special the whole season becomes.
So let’s see what this team, and these players, really are. Let’s see if they can win when it hurts just to play and scratch out a victory when you haven’t finished reading your press clippings. Can they come back, after being beaten by a superior squad, and steal a win against that same team in the bottom of the ninth? Can they win a double header on Jeter day?
It takes blood and guts to get the glory; now we are going to see what these Yankees players are made of.
Time of your life, huh kid?
