In a bizarre speech, Adams didn't mention a single player on the team, though he did mention the team's owners, Clara Wu Tsai and Joe Tsai. Mostly though, he talked about the long-overstated awesomeness of New York City - celebrating a supposedly great thing about the city that's not on anyone's list: Eric Leroy Adams.
"That's what this is about. It's about the greatest city on the globe, having a bald-headed, earring-wearing, mayor, being able to lead this city with everyday people who make this city what it is."
Perhaps, but our fact-checkers would like to point out that Adams is not the first bald mayor - but he is the first to be indicted while in office.
Onwards to the World Series. Maybe the Yankees will win and Adams will get a chance to talk about how he can hit a ball further than Aaron Judge.
