Overview
- On Sunday in the Bronx, play-by-play announcer Michael Kay and former Yankee Paul O’Neill used classic Seinfeld quips to frame Astros rookie Jason Alexander’s start.
- The announcers teased lines like “It’s not you, it’s me,” “the sea was angry” and “worlds are colliding” as part of their pop-culture scouting report.
- Jason Alexander responded with six shutout innings and one hit allowed, earning the win in Houston’s 7-1 victory.
- The Yankees announced a George Costanza bobblehead giveaway for Aug. 21 to extend the Seinfeld-themed promotion.
- O’Neill, who appeared in the show’s Season 7 episode “The Wink,” said he recently surpassed $100 in residual payments from his cameo.
