He's the catcher.

He's been at bat more times than any other Cardinal.

He's played in more games with the exception of one other player, Joe Torre.

He's played in 71, in 70 of the 71 games.

There's some discussion, apparently over the ground rules.

Joe Torre had brought out Chain Deeds' batting order for today's game.

Before we give you the lineups for this first of the three-game set, let's pause momentarily for station identification.

This is the WGN Chicago Cubs baseball network.

He fouled it back up against the screen, and it's one and two.

Oh, the Braves just got another one, not that they need it, but, uh, Joe Torre has hit a home run in the eighth inning with nobody on.

That ovation, in case you're in doubt, was for Warren Spahn, the winningest active Major League pitcher who was just introduced.

The, the manager has had a spot.

Joe Torre used to have a show called like Joe Torre's...

Not Joe Torre.

Joe Girardi used to have a show called like Joe Girardi's Closet.

Was that what it was called? What was the show on YES Network where Joe Girardi had a show where they would like [laughs]...

But again, in terms of standing out, be able to write an email.

You know, it doesn't mean you have to be a writer, know how to write a press release for the Miami Dolphins or a story about Joe Torre or something.

Just write an email that, you know, I say this to my students.

If you've written something for me, and it's 600 words, and there's not a single comma in that 600 words, then you didn't put any, you didn't reroute it, and you don't know how to punctuate a simple sentence.

This game would be going to extra innings.

In the top of the 10th, Yankees manager Joe Torre turned to the man who had become one of the most trusted pitchers in baseball, Mariano Rivera.

Rivera entered the game and shut down the Diamondbacks.

He got all three hitters to ground out, keeping the score tied.
