Ryan LaMarre walks it off
Michigan man Ryan LaMarre with the walk-off base hit in extra innings for the Yankees.
Hard to understand why this guy has not become an everyday player on a major league roster.

A more than mighty Titan of Jackson Lumen Christi.?
According to my folks, he grew up in the house right in back of the one I grew up in. But I’m a decade older. Never knew him.
Statistically, it's understandable.
Also homered on Tuesday.
Why he’s never been an everyday player: .633 OPS in the Majors; .736 OPS in the minors.
His OPS from 2019-present is good enough to be an MLB regular--well above .800.
2021 numbers in AAA: .308./400./479./879
I seem to recall some injury issues at some point.
His career batting slash line is mediocre. But that is all because his 2010-2015 numbers were not good. From 2016 forward his slash lines are mostly the sort of thing that gets a guy on an MLB roster.
he is one of the rare few that throw left and bat right. always better to bat lefty; especially with his speed.
hope he sticks. as a lefty, he would have been perfect in yankee stadium.
Easier to understand than an OP who can't properly embed a link or two. Especially an OP that has been on here for 6 years. Cumong, man!
Linking here is like many life skills, obvious once you know it but an obscure mystery until you do.
I believe I regularly read and occasionally posted for six years before some helpful soul pointed out that the oval icon below "Comment *" and above the comment space, and to the right of B and I, means to look like the link in a chain, so it indicates link, to be used for linking.
Because that link of steps, so to speak, is not obvious, perhaps that makes it not a test of awareness but blog lore to be passed along regularly.
Positing police are in house!
It is pretty easy to use a "dead" link. On your phone just thumb over it for a second. Not sure on a computer but I would imagine highlight and right click would work?
oh, what could've been, drew henson...
