“He’s got all the ability,” former Yankee shortstop Bucky Dent says of 22-year-old rookie Anthony Volpe.
An OLD familiar face, a bleeping face forever to Red Sox Nation, was in a Yankee Stadium suite watching the rubber game of the series on Sunday night.
Dent came from the White Sox to the Yankees in 1977 when he was 25. So it was different for him than it is for the 22-year-old Volpe. “I was with Texas in ’96 when we played ’em in the playoffs,” Dent said. “Derek had that confidence when he played. He was just a gifted athlete, a guy that really could do it all. He was a bigger shortstop. That was in the era where shortstops really started to get bigger — the A-Rods [Alex Rodriguez], the Cal Ripkens. Derek had tremendous ability. He’s a Hall of Famer.”
Volpe will head into the Subway Series against the Mets on Tuesday night with nine home runs and is 14-for-14 in stolen bases, the first Yankee to do so. “It’s still one of the greatest rivalries in all of sports,” Dent said. “I don’t think it’s as tense as it was when I came over in ’77. … Boston-New York’s always the biggest rivalry, I think.”
