It had been since 2012 that the Yankees had won a playoff series, not too long ago for a spoiled fan, but enough years back to where my 8yr olds don't remember watching. Jimmy especially invested a lot of time in the team this past season, watching the games with me until his bedtime, then falling asleep to the game on the radio. He would always have his binders of baseball cards at his side to flip through while we watched and would reference the players stats as they stepped into the batters box. I was thrilled for him that the team made a playoff run this year, and was proud of how he handled them losing "its ok, Daddy, they are a young team and will have another chance next year". Gigi likes going to Yankee stadium, but she doesn't have much use for the games on TV ( "its too boring" ) unless her favorite player, Didi Gregorius is up. I always call her over to the TV when Didi is up because she has this thing where she has to announce how he is her favorite player of all time, and she does it "in character". She puts an affect on her voice when she says his name that sounds equal parts George Costanza's mom and Carol Kane. " I love Didi Gregorious ".. Its hilarious , mostly because when you ask her why she says it like that, she pretends she has no idea what you are talking about. " What do you mean, that is my normal voice " she will say , with a coy smile..
