  • Derek Jeter posts heartwarming salute to Yankees legend John Sterling

    New York Yankees legendary shortstop Derek Jeter knows all about going out on one's own terms, which makes his salute to radio broadcaster John Sterling even more heartwarming. It was announced earlier this week that Sterling will retire from his everyday role as the team's radio broadcaster, a role that already had been reduced some for the 86-year-old. Jeter, who announced his retirement before the 2014 season, posted a heartwarming salute to Sterling on social media before the latter's ceremony on Saturday.

    Aaron Judge ties Derek Jeter on Yankees all-time HR list, but Bombers lose in extras as Cleveland rallies

    Aaron Judge's home run Sunday in Cleveland marked the 260th of his career, tying him with his Yankees captain predecessor, Derek Jeter, for ninth place on the franchise's all-time list. It came in a losing effort, however, as Cleveland walked off in the 10th inning with a 8-7 victory. Judge's three-run blast in the third inning served as an early highlight in an instant-classic affair that featured late-game heroics from both teams. Former Yankees outfielder Estevan Florial broke a 4-4 tie with a pinch-hit solo home run off Luke Weaver in the bottom of the eighth inning, only for the Yankees' Anthony Volpe to tie the game with a two-out RBI double against Cleveland closer Emmanuel Clase in the ninth.
