Phillies-Yankees: Game Six Notes, Watching the »

Coming into tonight's game, despite my love for Pedro Martinez, I knew that a win was going to be all on the offense. They weren't ever going to win a 2-1 game in New York, not against this offense, and not with this bullpen. There was hope that they could slug their way to a win, of course; the Yankee starters weren't used to working on three [...]

The point of this article is to go in depth into the number 27, and even using the two and the seven in a math equation to bring up a significance. I hope you enjoy. 27 = The number [...]

Tonight Could Be Hideki Matsui’s Last Game As a »

The night of Game Six of the 2009 World Series could be a memorable one for Yankee fans. It could be the night they finally get a chance to celebrate their 27th World Series, and their first since 2000. But for Hideki Matsui, it could be his last night as a Yankee at Yankee Stadium. Hideki Matsui will be a free agent at the end of the season. The [...]

Ranking the Housewives of the Bronx »

The New York Yankees have been a team on fire during 2009. The Yankees' success can be seen through their 2009 World Series appearance. But there is always that saying, "Behind every successful man, there is a beautiful woman," the Yankees hold true to this saying. The women behind the New York Yankees give a whole new meaning to 'on fire.' These [...]

World Series, Game 6: In Andy We Trust »

The great thing about the postseason, and the World Series in particular, is that redemption is always just around the corner. Alex Rodriguez knows all about that. He entered last month as a playoff pariah—his October failures as big a part of his identity as his three MVP awards. It took just 14 games (and 18 RBI) to change all that. Playoff [...]

A Blind Monkey Could Have Managed This New York »

Please tell me Cub fans and the media aren't going to talk about how Joe Girardi is about to win the World Series and how the Cubs passed on him for Lou Piniella...oh wait, they already did. They are forgetting the whole team factor and how as long as you have a finger to point, you could manage this New York Yankees team.  Is it hard to put [...]

At the Finish Line…Thoughts Before the Last »

In the grand scheme of things, baseball is a kid's game. It makes heroes out of ordinary men. It makes celebrities out of lowlifes like Jose Canseco and John Rocker. It turns cities against each other—sometimes, even boroughs of the same city. Its victories and defeats are celebrated and suffered with pure emotion. It can make an 18-year-old kid [...]

The Return of Mystique and Aura? »

Game Six of the World Series. The New York Yankees are just one win away from a world championship. They are sending Andy Pettitte to the mound. Pettitte has been one of the Yankees most clutch post season pitchers in franchise history. Given the Yankees powerful line-up; they are heavy favorites to close out the World Series without getting [...]

World Series Observations »

After having the pleasure of watching five relatively exciting World Series games, there are a few things that have stood out in my mind as noteworthy. The following is a list of some observations from this year's series thus far: With his half-dozen mound visits per inning, Jorge Posada is the sole reason these World Series games take four hours [...]

A Rant From a Yankees Fan »

I've learned that the New York Yankees spoiled me at an early age. I was just shy of 11 years old when I saw the Yankees win their 26th World Series in 2000, their fourth in five years. Losing I feel is what molds us as sports fans. Rooting for a dynasty is the easiest thing in the world. While less joyful, losing I feel has made me a better [...]
