It’s never too early to indoctrinate your kids on how awesome it is to be a Yankees fan. Also, the rule of law. #AllRise

How many lefties are in the Red Sox rotation again?

Giancarlo Stanton HOMERS in his first at-bat of the season! pic.twitter.com/d2uaBtMcby

Over/Under 162 hr? With that mighty swing, Stanton became the 19th player to homer in his first at-bat with the Yankees, joining other notables such as Aaron Judge, Andruw Jones, Curtis Granderson, Graig Nettles, and … Todd Zeile. Ok, so for all the Yankees home run lists that there are, this one isn’t as impressive as some others.

Who’s the Yankees .gif designer? They deserve a raise for this. Elegant, yet ripe with pop culture references.

Could use a grammar lesson though.

Found the new Bart for the Blazing Saddles reboot. The real question is who on this team would play Mongo?

The real question is whether there will be more Fortnite or The Show references this year.

I’ve never seen a duck run before. I wonder if Judge likes sweeping…

Giancarlo Stanton HRs 2, Marlins Wins 0, and you know we'll be tracking this all year.

It’s going to be a loooooong year in Miami. Here’s another fun game: Will Stanton + Judge home runs outnumber Marlins losses?

Technically Stanton won’t be able to earn his pinstripes until he’s hit a walk-off home run. Extra stripes if it’s against the Red Sox.
