Jerry's Update
Subscribe to the Boomer & Carton Podcast »
After hearing about the active lifestyle of Al Dukes, Jerry Recco was back in the saddle Tuesday morning, a day after both the Mets and the Yankees took care of business on the field.
The Mets set the tone Monday with an 8-5 win over the second-place Nationals, expanding their lead in the NL East to five games, an effort that was spearheaded by David Wright, who according to Boomer played and acted like a captain.
The recently maligned Matt Harvey, who according to Craig was embarrassed by Wright, will be on the hill for the Amazns on Tuesday night in D.C.
After a brief break to throw baseballs at a cardboard Cragie, Jerry eventually resumed his update duties.
Meanwhile, the Yankees downed Buck Showalter's Orioles 8-6, thanks in large part to a long ball courtesy of rookie Greg Bird. The Bombers now trail the Blue Jays by just a half-game in the AL East.
We also get word that CC Sabathia will be returning to the Yanks' rotation and that Nathan Eovaldi will be shut down for two weeks or so.
