The Post’s Steve Serby caught up with All-Star Yankees setup man David Robertson to discuss everything from his aggressive pitching style to his experience visiting the tornado victims in his hometown of Tuscaloosa, Ala.

Q: What’s your mound temperament?

I’m thinking about … beating this guy and getting him out. That’s the only thing I’m thinking about. I don’t care how I have to do it, if I got to strike him out in 12 pitches or three, or if I got to get a groundball or pop fly, I’m going to compete with you with everything I’ve got.


Q: Do you pitch with an anger?

Tuscaloosa, Alabama Tornado Relief Efforts

Tuscaloosa, Alabama Tornado Relief Efforts

We’ve collected some information on ways that DE students and/or alumni can help. While we aren’t experiencing the immediate effects of the tornado in Tuscaloosa, but the feeling of helplessness and frustration can also be overwhelming. Hopefully one of these resources or ideas will be feasible for you as we join together in support of our friends, professors and colleagues in the Tuscaloosa area.

We will send updated information to SLIS-L as it becomes available. If anyone is aware of additional information, please feel free to email Turner.Brittany AT gmail DOT com, call 916-384-6735 or comment on this post. We will include your relief suggestions in the list. This blog post will be updated any time new information becomes available.

The most needed resource is financial support, as money can be used to facilitate any combination of recovery efforts when they are needed most. This includes clean up, food, shelter, and other emergency services. If you are unable to offer financial support, there are a number of other options available to help. Also, remember that this will be a long-term effort. While there may be many donations now, additional support will be needed in the coming months and your generosity…
