Worlds collided on Sunday in Bronx as New York Yankees faced a Houston Astros jug named Jason Alexander.
The irony, of course, is that the actor named Jason Alexander played the team’s “Assistant to the Travel Secretary” in the hit show, “Seinfeld.”
So, as Alexander, the pitcher warmed, Yankee’s advertiser Michael Kay and his color commentator, formerly Yankee and Seinfeld -Guest Paul O’Neill gave their scout report on Alexander using lines from the show.

The notes of the scout report were: “It’s not you, it’s me” as a nod to Alexander, who didn’t know he threw on Sunday until the day before, “The Sea was angry” to note about his scoreless excursion against Miami Marlins, and “worlds collided” because of the obvious nature of the circumstances.
O’NEILL mentioned that Yankees will give off a George Costanza Bobblehead on August 21st.
Alexander actually took a non-hit bid on the sixth lap-male was the winning jug in Houston’s 7-1 victory.
O’Neill appeared in the episode “The Wink” in Season 7 as just one of several Yankees who were on the hit series throughout his dominance in the 1990s. It’s the one where Kramer (played by Michael Richards) promises a boy in the hospital that he would get the right field to hit two home runs in a game in an attempt to try to get a birthday card back to Steinbrenner, signed by members of Yankees who had sold.
The former outfielder said during the broadcast he still gets leftovers – last year he said they were “like $ 57,” but in his latest check he said he cracked the $ 100 milestone.

“They have to play [the episodes] More, “O’Neill joked.
“It’s not a lot of time. However, it’s a good reminder that you were on the show. It’s pretty cool,” he said last year.
In addition to O’Neill, Yankees players Derek Jeter, Bernie Williams and Danny Tartabull and manager Buck Showalter also appeared on the series, while a stunt double was used for Steinbrenner expressed by co-creator Larry David. The real Steinbrenner filmed a scene that was never used, but he was never as open as the false to his mistake in trading Jay Buhner for Ken Phelps.
O’Neill had 15 Multi-Homer games in his career, including hitting three dingers on August 31, 1995 (the fictional game in the “Seinfeld” episode was not one of them when a seemingly home driving inside the park was managed a triple and he scored after a mistake).

Yankees retired with his No. 21 in 2022. Pitcher Latroy Hawkins wore it in 2008, seven years after O’Neill retired, but was booed because of it, leaving it to be unofficially retired until it was finally honored in Monument Park.
O’Neill played for Yankees from 1993 to 2001, after spending his previous eight seasons with Cincinnati Reds.
