El campocorto de los Yankees, Anthony Volpe, es la comidilla de ... (ESPN Deportes)

El campocorto es el Yankee más joven en abrir el Día Inaugural desde Derek Jeter. Su mamá y su papá, grandes fanáticos de los Yankees y adictos a las ...

"Trato de recordarme a mí mismo que incluso si Anthony no lo logra, tendrá éxito en todo lo que quiera hacer en la vida", dice Michael. "En el fondo de su mente, siempre está pensando, está allí, está allí, está allí. En este momento, los fanáticos de los Yankees que critican a su hijo están en un rincón solitario de Internet. Cuando Judge irrumpió en escena como un novato superestrella en 2017, conectó 52 jonrones, ganó los honores de novato del año y terminó segundo en la carrera por el MVP, el entonces mánager Joe Girardi comparó al toletero con Jeter, notando su actitud, presencia y sonrisa. En este momento, todos sueñan con si Volpe puede estar a la altura de Jeter, pero solo espere hasta que tenga su primera mala racha. "Ese fue un mal aspecto, así que le prometí a mi esposa y a mi familia que nunca volvería a hacer ningún comentario en ningún tipo de redes sociales ni nada por el estilo". El bisabuelo de Volpe por parte de su padre se mudó a los Estados Unidos desde Italia con una educación de tercer grado. Durante los primeros 10 años de la vida de Anthony, los Volpe vivieron en Murray Hill y el Upper West Side, y lo traían a The Baseball Center, un centro de entrenamiento cercano, porque quería jugar tanto como fuera posible. Mientras el novato se prepara para conocer a Piniella por primera vez, hace un movimiento que luego haría temblar a los fieles de los Yankees: se quita la gorra antes de estrechar la mano de Piniella. A veces son los aspectos más destacados de su último inconveniente en el campo. Los Yankees comenzaron los entrenamientos de primavera llamando al puesto de campocorto una competencia abierta, y Volpe estuvo tan impresionante que se ganó el salto a las mayores después de solo 22 juegos en Triple-A. "Hay momentos en los que hablo con la familia y les cuento mi día", dice Volpe.

Look: Anthony Volpe follows Aaron Judge's lead in Yankees debut (FanSided)

Anthony Volpe has taken inspiration from Aaron Judge, showing just how much respect and appreciation he has for the Yankees.

He did this not just with his play but by demonstrating again and again that he understands what it means to be a member of his historic franchise and cherishes the opportunity. The day after receiving the news, he was the first to arrive at the stadium and was in uniform long before anyone else. He did it by spurning his hometown San Francisco Giants in free agency and deciding to re-sign with the Yankees this winter for nine more years.

Anthony Volpe called his Yankees' debut the “most fun I ever had, period.” Here's a look at the biggest day of the 21-year-old's life:

Volpe emerges with the game’s scorecard. He looks at ball four, and there is literal jumping for joy in the section. The shortstop. 1:52 p.m.: “Leading off for the New York Yankees. Anthony’s great-grandfather — we’re all Yankee fans,” said Granello, who took the train from her Brooklyn home and invited a reporter over for meatballs. Just about all of them, from all parts of the family tree. The two talk for several minutes. 12:52 p.m.: Volpe, as the No. About 11 a.m.: The Volpe family arrives. 7:40 a.m.: Volpe, who was raised in Watchung, N.J., wakes up after spending the night in New York — which implies that he did, indeed, manage to get to sleep. After his arm, Volpe next warms up his hands: Infield coach Travis Chapman feeds him ground balls through a machine. “Everyone, I thought, was pretty excited to get out there and just start playing.”

Very few people in this world have the luxury of putting on the Yankees pinstripes and making their MLB debut in the Bronx with a historic organization.

Luckily for Anthony, he can enjoy Friday with family, celebrating his incredible success before starting a grueling part of the schedule that sees the Yankees play 14 games in a 15-day sample. Shortstop has been marred by inconsistencies the past few seasons, and Volpe is an obvious solution the Yankees couldn’t stop themselves from implementing.
