Notre Dame football: Marcus Freeman statement on Gerad Parker
Some truly shocking news came down Monday for Notre Dame football as offensive coordinator Gerad Parker is gone, headed to Troy to become their head coach.
Parker was at Notre Dame for two seasons. 2022 saw him coach the tight ends before he was promoted to offensive coordinator in 2023. This 2023 season had some highs and lows.
We here at Fighting Irish Wire will have plenty on the search for Notre Dame’s next offensive coordinator. Whoever the next one is will be the fourth in as many years for the Fighting Irish.
In the meantime, Marcus Freeman released a statement on Parker taking the Troy job. Check it out below:
Stay tuned to Fighting Irish Wire as the search for Notre Dame’s next offensive coordinator gets underway.
Yankees hit historic 9 home runs, including 3 from Aaron Judge and 3 off game’s first 3 pitches, to crush Brewers
Nestor Cortes, who infamously gave up a walk-off grand slam in the World Series, had a nightmare start against his old team
The New York Yankees got off to a hot start Saturday, opening a home game against the Milwaukee Brewersby hitting three straight home runs off the first three pitches. That was just the start of the onslaught: New York finished with a team-record nine homers — including three from Aaron Judge — in a 20-9 victory over the Brewers.
The Toronto Blue Jays hold the MLB record for home runs in a game with 10, set in 1987. The Yankees joined the Cincinnati Reds (Sept. 4, 1999) as the only other teams with nine.
New York’s first four homers came against former Yankees pitcher Nestor Cortes, who was traded to Milwaukee soon after dropping the ball in New York’s World Series loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Yankees first baseman Paul Goldschmidt started things off, hitting Cortes’ first pitch of the game. After that, left fielder Cody Bellinger got a solo homer of his own, and then Judge did the same in his at-bat.
