Jeff Wilson’s Thursday newsletter touches on Nick Solak coming back from AAA a new man and Joey Gallo not doing a whole lot to endear himself to Yankee fans.

T.R. Sullivan’s memoirs reminisce about how The Ballpark in Arlington came to be, and how the opening of the new stadium was one of the most disappointing days of his career.

Chris Woodward attributes last night’s win to playing well as a team and grinding out good at-bats, with Nick Solak seeing 16 pitches in an at-bat and DJ Peters seeing 10.
