TAMPA — Let’s frame how far back June 6, 2014 was. Far enough that both the Rangers-Kings Stanley Cup and the Heat-Spurs NBA Finals rematch were between Games 1 and 2 and Yangervis Solarte was between Brian McCann and Ichiro Suzuki in the Yankee lineup that night at Kauffman Stadium.

It was long enough ago that Royals catcher Salvador Perez is the only one of 25 who played in the Yankees’ 4-2 victory still on a 40-man roster.

Wilking Rodríguez, who had made his MLB debut three nights earlier with a perfect inning against the Cardinals, allowed the Yanks two base runners, but no runs. And that was it. Not for the game. But for Rodriguez’s MLB career.

Until now, perhaps.
