Clubhouse

NEW YORK — This, the sound of a few electronics buzzing and the chatter of reporters clamoring for space, is what it sounds like when a baseball team realizes it simply isn’t good enough. This, a near-empty postgame clubhouse with no one sitting at his locker and chatting, with stars coming in briefly to pull on their hoodies and sneakers and grab their bags, is what it looks like when a team that is supposed to win every October without fail is faced with the reality that it is simply not built to do so this time.This, the shaking of heads and recital of cliches, is all the New York Yankees can offer now, after a 5-0 loss to the Houston Astros in Game 3 of an American League Championship Series they now trail three games to none. Only one team in baseball history, the Boston Red Sox, has recovered from a deficit like that — and they don’t really use that comeback as a rallying cry around these parts.“We got to find a way right now,” Yankees Manager Aaron Boone said.  » Read More

by Josh Goldberg Oct 22, 7:45 PM Elsa / Getty Images Sport / Getty New York Yankees left-hander Nestor Cortes believes the club should name star outfielder Aaron Judge as the 16th team captain in franchise history - provided the pending free agent decides to re-sign this offseason."He's meant everything," Cortes said of Judge's importance to the Yankees in 2022, per SNY. "I think I'm able to say that if he's back here next year, he's our captain. He's the next captain."The Yankees have been without a team captain since Hall of Fame shortstop Derek Jeter retired at the conclusion of the 2014 campaign. Cortes believes Judge's presence and leadership in the clubhouse would make him a natural fit as the team's captain."We follow everything he does," Cortes said. "He leads by example. He's not really a guy that comes down and screams at anybody, but if he has to, that's his job. I think he's earned that right to keep us in check."Judge authored one of the greatest offensive seasons in Yankees history in 2022.  » Read More

Sydney’s Cam Davis has promised to keep the foot to the floor as he chases a second PGA TOUR title in his final event before returning home to Australia. A confirmed starter at both the Fortinet Australian PGA Championship and ISPS HANDA Australian Open from next month, Davis returned a second consecutive round of five-under 66 at The CJ Cup in South Carolina to be the clubhouse leader at 10-under. By day’s end he was one stroke back of former world No.1 Jon Rahm (62) and American Kurt Kitayama (65) at Congaree Golf Club and with no sign of muting his aggressive intent. Continuing to ride the momentum of his breakout Presidents Cup debut, Davis roared home with four birdies in the space of five holes on the back nine, content that he is making the most of the scoring opportunities on offer. “You can play more conservatively if you’ve got a big lead or anything like that but there’s so many good guys out here that can get it going,” said Davis.  » Read More

FOCUS ON HISTORY – The Phil Kilfoil Company’s Woodland Players from New York City performed Shakespeare’s comedy “As You Like It” on the grounds of the Antlers Club in Fort Johnson the night of July 13, 1904.  The private golf course, today known as Rolling Hills, had opened in 1901 on a 90 acre site. The original clubhouse was built that year with a spectacular view of the Mohawk Valley from its veranda. The play was performed atop a hill overlooking the clubhouse with the woods forming what the Amsterdam Recorder reviewer called “an ideal background” to a grassy stage.  Japanese lanterns lighted the audience “with a soft flickering light” and Minch’s orchestra, a local favorite, played popular songs before the show, keeping the crowd entertained while they waited. When the play began, “powerful calcium lights” illuminated the stage and trees with what the newspaper called “a bright but weird glow, which might be well described as exaggerated moonlight.” It was chilly for July. The performance was originally scheduled the night before but had been rained out.   » Read More

Chief finally has a clubhouse in San Francisco, but don’t call it a coworking space. The 8,600 square feet do include conference rooms, one-person Zoom rooms, and open-plan seating, but it also has a bar, lounge seating, and — like Chief’s other clubhouses in New York, L.A., and Chicago — a piano.“To me, what the piano represents is ‘this is not a coworking space,’” Chief co-founder Lindsay Kaplan told me on a tour of the clubhouse in advance of its official opening Thursday. “This is a place where you can sit back and take meetings in a very laid-back manner.”Unlike the Wing, the women-focused coworking space and club that shut down this summer after a six-year run, Kaplan and co-founder and CEO Carolyn Childers are still much more interested in building and supporting Chief’s network than boosting its physical amenities.That’s why Chief’s main offering, curated, 10-member “Core” peer groups that meet monthly with an executive coach, will still take place virtually.“What we most optimize for is finding the right and perfect 10 people for you to be with,” Childers said.  » Read More

NEW YORK — Not 45 minutes after the New York Yankees sealed a 5-1 win over the Cleveland Guardians to clinch a berth in the American League Championship Series, the plastic wrap that had been draped over the lockers and the alcohol-soaked tarps that had covered the clubhouse carpet Tuesday night were gone.The only remaining evidence of the celebration: the goggles on the drenched figure of Aaron Judge, who was still surrounded by reporters as his teammates finished their Budweisers and started packing their bags.They had sprayed themselves with alcohol, as division series champions do. They had blasted music and cracked a few beers. They had run out to the field to take a picture of themselves drenched in champagne and relief, stayed long enough for their manager to join them for another, then hurried back into the dugout as fans roared.Someone asked Judge what he thought of all those fans, standing there, cheering them on — fans whose compatriots were booing him earlier this series because Yankees do not struggle in October.  » Read More

Some would describe the Yankees' clubhouse celebration after clinching the ALDS on Tuesday as somewhat mellower than past celebrations. Why? Because the Astros await Wednesday night in game one of the ALCS, leaving the Yanks little time before hopping on a plane to Houston.
