What made the moment even more special was a message from Amy Crawford, which Cole shared with his teammates. She had written on a card: “One Cole is already throwing heat for the Yankees… now we’ve got two more in the bullpen waiting their turn!”
The witty remark sent the entire team into a fit of laughter. Even manager Aaron Boone couldn’t help but chuckle, jokingly responding, “Well, I guess we just secured our rotation for the 2045 season.”
Cole, laughing along with his teammates, admitted that Amy had been planning to reveal the pregnancy in a creative way. “She’s the real MVP,” Cole said with a grin. “I just do my job on the mound, but she’s handling double duty now.”
Teamwide Celebration and Social Media Reactions
Following the announcement, the Yankees made sure to celebrate properly. A few players coordinated an impromptu toast with sports drinks, raising their bottles in honor of Cole’s growing family. Others took to social media to express their happiness, with Aaron Judge posting on Instagram, “Twins on the way! Congrats to Gerrit and Amy! Future Yankees loading…”
Fans quickly joined in, flooding the comments with well-wishes and congratulatory messages. The Yankees’ official Twitter account also got in on the fun, tweeting: “Gerrit Cole’s ERA isn’t the only thing multiplying… Congratulations to the Coles on their upcoming additions!”
The announcement quickly went viral, with baseball fans from across the league sending messages of support and joy. Even former Yankees players, including CC Sabathia and Andy Pettitte, chimed in with their congratulations.
A New Chapter for the Coles
For Cole and Crawford, this exciting news marks the beginning of a new chapter. The couple, who have been married since 2016, have always been open about their love for family. Amy, a former UCLA softball player and the sister of former MLB pitcher Brandon Crawford, has been a constant source of support for Cole throughout his career.
With their family now expanding by two, Cole expressed his gratitude for the support he has received. “Being a dad is something I’ve always looked forward to, and now, knowing we’re having twins, it just doubles the excitement,” he said.
The Yankees organization also extended their congratulations, with general manager Brian Cashman stating, “Gerrit has been a leader on and off the field, and we are thrilled for him and Amy as they embark on this incredible journey as parents.”
Looking Ahead

As the Yankees continue their season, Cole will now have even more motivation every time he takes the mound. His teammates have already begun jokingly brainstorming baby gift ideas, with some suggesting a set of tiny pinstripe jerseys for the newborns. Others are betting on whether the twins will follow in their father’s footsteps and become future MLB stars.
While the baseball season is full of pressure and high expectations, moments like these remind players and fans alike that life off the field is just as important. Cole’s exciting news has brought a wave of positivity and joy to the Yankees, further strengthening the bond among teammates.
As the season progresses, one thing is certain: the Coles’ growing family will have the full support of the Yankees organization and their dedicated fans. And who knows? Maybe one day, the Yankees will see another generation of Coles taking the mound at Yankee Stadium.
