Today on Pinstripe Alley - 9/4/22

It’s Sunday, and the Yankees will play a baseball game this afternoon. There is technically a chance they’ll win it. If they don’t, the Rays will sweep to pull within three games of first place in the AL East. It’s hard to describe what’s going on much more than that without launching into a diatribe. So, enjoy the baseball today, if you dare.

Ahead of today’s matinee, we bask in the absurd, as Matt looks deep into Yankee history to find a wild walk-off by Wally Pipp, while Jesse argues that the Yankees’ second-half collapse makes all the more sense when viewed as a farce. Also, Estevão looks at the Rays’ own adversity compared to the Yankees, and Joe takes us around the week in Yankee social media.
