ARLINGTON, Texas — When he pitched in all five games of the ALDS in a span of eight days last October, Wandy Peralta was lauded by his catcher for having “brass balls.”

Peralta, besides being one of the Yankees’ most valuable relievers, is one of the most beloved players in their clubhouse.

“He speaks fluent gibberish,” Gerrit Cole said.
