Bobby Witt Jr. was hitless in his last game (0-for-5), but will take another crack at it when the Kansas City Royals square off versus Carlos Rodon and the New York Yankees on Monday at 7:38 PM ET

The Yankees also ranked in the top half of the league in pitcher pickoff attempts, with Stroman leading the way at 61. The Yankees successfully nabbed 13 runners this season, though injured lefty Nestor Cortes was responsible for four of them.

Witt went down a rabbit hole of Derek Jeter highlights, and the memories came rushing back. As much as anything or anyone else, it was the New York Yankees’ Hall of Fame shortstop who inspired Witt to start playing baseball as a kid.
