Houston Astros manager Dusty Baker Jr., left, receives his World Series championship run from Whitney Crane during a ring ceremony before the start MLB baseball game at Minute Maid Park on Friday, March 31, 2023 in Houston.First-year White Sox manager Pedro Grifol learned Friday night what a lot of major league skippers already know: There is no neutralizing Yordan Alvarez.

Faced him before, so I was ready." During last year's postseason march to the championship, Alvarez thwarted the alleged percentages with a pair of titanic home runs. When the Mariners brought in lefthander Robbie Ray to face him in Game 1 of the American League Division Series, Alvarez sent a Cuban missile to right-center field to give the Astros a walk-off win.
