I will say this. All 30 managers in baseball get second guessed multiple times each season. All 30 of them gamble on several occasions and make moves that their fanbases disagree with, and many of those moves absolutely turn out to be the wrong ones.

Just watched Anthony Volpe being interviewed by Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez (and "Big Papi"). You could tell that Volpe was in awe of being interviewed by his two childhood idols. First Jeter, then A-Rod. Of course, they whipped out that famous picture of 8-year old Anthony Volpe at the Yankees 2009 World Series ticker tape parade for him.

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
