His interests are broad. “I was second in my high school class-and was also the class president. My mother wanted me to be a doctor then. I chose baseball and signed with the Giants. My lady and I have traveled a lot. Peter O’Malley took me took me to Japan with the Dodgers. We’ve been to Australia. I love the outdoors and had a vacation home for years in Canada.” Kleppner; Paul. The Third Electoral System 1853–1892: Parties, Voters, and Political Cultures University of North Carolina Press. 1979, on Yankee voting behavior In the Southern United States, the term is used in derisive reference to any Northerner, especially one who has migrated to the South and maintains derisive attitudes towards Southerners and the Southern way of life. Alabama lawyer and author Daniel Robinson Hundley describes the Yankee as such in Social Relations in Our Southern States:

Yankee ingenuity was a worldwide stereotype of inventiveness, technical solutions to practical problems, "know-how," self-reliance, and individual enterprise. [32] The stereotype first appeared in the 19th century. As Mitchell Wilson notes, "Yankee ingenuity and Yankee git-up-and-go did not exist in colonial days." [33] The great majority of Yankees gravitated toward the burgeoning cities of the northeast, while wealthy New Englanders also sent ambassadors to frontier communities where they became influential bankers and newspaper printers. They introduced the term "Universal Yankee Nation" to proselytize their hopes for national and global influence. [34] Religion [ edit ] Willie Calhoun drove in three runs for the Yankees, who played their first game since putting slugger Aaron Judge on the 10-day injured list with a sprained and bruised right big toe. Calhoun hit an RBI single and a two-run homer off starter Lance Lynn. Dimaggio chose to fight in World War II, meaning he was out of baseball from 1943-1945 due to military service. The meaning of Yankee has varied over time. In the 18th century, it referred to residents of New England descended from the original English settlers of the region. Mark Twain used the word in this sense the following century in his 1889 novel A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court. As early as the 1770s, British people applied the term to any person from the United States. In the 19th century, Americans in the southern United States employed the word in reference to Americans from the northern United States, though not to recent immigrants from Europe. Thus, a visitor to Richmond, Virginia, commented in 1818, "The enterprising people are mostly strangers; Scots, Irish, and especially New England men, or Yankees, as they are called". [10] How about the well known issues between Joe Garagiola and Harry Caray in St. Louis when they called Cardinals games in the late 1950s? White explained that “Joe was so popular and didn’t have to work his way up to the booth. Caray felt he didn’t pay his dues.”

Many etymologies have been suggested for the word Yankee, but modern linguists generally reject theories which suggest that it originated in any Indian languages. [13] This includes a theory put forth by a British officer in 1789, who said that it was derived from the Cherokee word eankke meaning "coward"—despite the fact that no such word existed in the Cherokee language. [13] Another theory surmised that the word was borrowed from the Wyandot [18] pronunciation of the French l'anglais, meaning "the Englishman" or "the English language", which was sounded as Y'an-gee. [13] [19] After 1800, Yankees spearheaded most American reform movements, including those for the abolition of slavery, temperance in use of alcohol, increase in women's political rights, and improvement in women's education. Emma Willard and Mary Lyon pioneered in the higher education of women, while Yankees comprised most of the reformers who went South during Reconstruction in the late 1860s to educate the Freedmen. [27] We liked one other. We were over each other’s homes. When he was in a retirement home, I’d drive up an hour and a half (from his Philly area home) and spent time with him in New Jersey. We talked about life and baseball. He helped me a lot,” Bill reinforced. NEW YORK -- — Eloy Jiménez hit a go-ahead homer in the seventh inning, and the Chicago White Sox beat the New York Yankees 6-5 in the opener of a doubleheader Thursday to extend their winning streak to a season-high five games.

The term Yankee and its contracted form Yank have several interrelated meanings, all referring to people from the United States. Their various meanings depend on the context, and may refer to New Englanders, the Northeastern United States, the Northern United States, or to people from the US in general. [2] [3] [4] That shows the class of the organization,” Hendriks said. “I will be forever grateful and it’s something they didn’t have to do but it is very much appreciated.”Scully helped me a lot too. I’d sent him audio and video tapes and he shared some important tips with me. Our connection was Peter O’Malley who hooked up the two of us. Pete and Vinny are close. When I reached the always affable White he said he never thought of the anniversary and was genuinely surprised that it has been fifty years since his historic appointment.

Severino tied a career high by serving up three homers for the fourth time overall and second consecutive start. He allowed four runs and six hits in five innings.
