Summary

We were joined by Jay Gordon from River Ave Blues to talk about the origin of the Yankee fan online community. All the way back in 2008 when Torre was the managers and Desus Nice was running around in the small Yankee twitter crew. We talked about how fandom changes as you grow older. And we also got audio of a Don Zimmer voicemail after the Pedro incident. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
