Finally?
It's April.
He finally hit a late-inning, pinch-hit, go-ahead HR:
"Maybe the Yankees should hold onto that Chris Carter guy after all.
Carter, regularly lambasted by the fan base -- many of whom had regularly called for his release on social media -- due to his early struggles at the plate, delivered a pinch-hit, three-run homer in the eighth inning that broke a 5-all tie and allowed the Yankees to secure another unlikely come-from-behind victory on the road.
Talk about a big first bomb in pinstripes. Carter had been signed to a one-year, $3.5 million contract in the offseason. He came into Saturday's game hitting .148."
I had no idea Carter has been regularly lambasted by the fan base. The fans have been regularly lambasting a bench warmer with 27 at-bats?
If so, the fans need to figure out a consistent criteria for their derision. A one-year, $3.5 million contract is the same as free. It's a good signing no matter what happens.
