Yankees Birthday of the Day: Dámaso García

February 7th is a day that doesn’t have much history for birthdays with the Yankees’ organization. In fact, only three players born on that day have ever worn the pinstripes: combining for, essentially, one full season of MLB at-bats between them.

UCLA Game Preview and Open Thread

Those of us who follow UW Men’s Basketball have spent weeks talking about how the schedule will eventually get softer and the Dawgs could make a run.
