Bader #Bader
It may have taken until the postseason, but Harrison Bader finally has a John Sterling home run call.
Hitting in the No. 9 spot, the New York native picked a great time for his first Yankees home run as he hit one off of Cal Quantrill to tie up Game 1 of the the American League Division Series against the Cleveland Guardians. The legendary Yankees radio broadcaster broke out into song, belting out “I’m just wild about Harry!” as Bader rounded the bases.
Since coming over for Jordan Montgomery at the trade deadline, Bader has provided a spark for the Yankees with his speed and stellar defense. The 28-year-old had been struggling at the plate though, posting a mere .217 average and .245 on-base percentage during his time in pinstripes.
