 stand by with the clubhouse report presented by your local forward stores and Jack and I have already touched on it you know Meredith we talk about it as seeing the Yankees winning ball games in different ways with the long ball and the small ball do the Yankees see it themselves that way well there's definitely been a lot of energy surrounding this team lately and obviously it's a lot more fun when you're winning ball games and your scoring runs and when you look at the last three games in particular the Yankees have outscored opponents 18 to 6 9 of those 18 runs were courtesy the long ball but they have found other ways to manufacture runs and last night once again that new found speed was on display definitely a different element and you know something that's certainly played a factor here for us these past few games where you know that's come into play a little bit you know and you know right now with what we have you know we got to do things in a different kind of way and you know it's it's been nice to see these last few games you know guys you know really step up and play really well you know last night we hit the long ball but did other things well and it's it's been a lot of fun to see the entire roster really contributing to some important wins DJ LaMahue was who was a late scratch last night is in tonight's lineup he'll play first base Chris Chris kittens was not an option yesterday because of an Achilles issue he will be available off the bench tonight and Luke Voight was out there earlier today around four o'clock doing some light defensive drills that is the first time he has been doing baseball activity of any kind since landing on the injured list there is no time frame for him meanwhile Brett Gardner is once again in left field tonight he spoke a little bit about the Yankees play as of late you know our depth obviously is really coming into play and you're seeing some of these young guys get great opportunities and really stepping up with with their play on the field and you know it's a lot of fun it's a lot of fun to see them get that opportunity and to you know bring some youth and speed into the lineup and you know guys like Greg Allen and Florie Al and Trey Ambergy you know I think that you know really Ryan Lamar guys that you know were able to you know change the game with with their legs and on the defensive side of the ball and you know it's just been fun to see and and obviously we've been playing pretty good baseball so it's been fun to be a part of you mentioned Florie Al I know it's just one game you've seen him in the past you've gone through spring trainings with them just what have you thought of him overall and is it enjoyable for you to watch a guy accomplish some of those firsts in the big league big leagues yeah I mean he's a guy who he's a really really talented player but he's a really really special person and he's a guy that we've we've seen for we've seen especially up close and personal in spring training these last few years and you know just excited to see him get this opportunity and be able to perform on the biggest stage and you know I think it's you know no situation is too big for him and you could say that about a lot of these young guys on our roster but um he's obviously very very excited to be here had a great game last night some really good at bats and you know he's a guy that can can change the game in a lot of ways and you know very happy for him to you know not just be here and get this opportunity to now but to be healthy and to be able to produce the way that he has been you know it's fun to watch up close and personal and Floriel had a nice night last night one for three with a walk in two RBI's and also his first big league home run he was able to get that ball back he said he is going to keep it now it's funny he was actually talking to his wife before the game and she's the one that said to him hey you could hit a home run tonight and he said as he was going around the bases that's what he was thinking of pretty cool Bob
