July 21st vs. The Devil Rays – Game 2
Jay Witasick must have thought he was called in to this game to perform an encore performance of his work during Game 6 of the 2001 World Series. I’m just glad he was pitching against the Yankees this...

As much as I want to say that it’s Shelley Duncan’s world and I’m just happy to be living in it, the fact of the matter is that the Yankees, as a team, have just mashed the D-Rays pitching over the...

In this game, A-Rod becomes the first batter to reach 100 RBI in (a season) in fewer than 100 of his team games since Manny Ramirez did it in 1999. What a year for Rodriguez. I take back what I said...

The story of this game is the same as the story for this season in Yankeeland: Too little, too late. I think it’s time to face it, and admit it, that this Yankees’ team is a “C.T.” – as in “Contender...

I totally missed this game. We went to see the Simpsons movie (it was just O.K. – and we’re fans of the show) and we then went out for an early dinner (where my Chicken Penne Alla Vodka was excellent,...

It’s still sweet to pound Jose Contreras. It’s not everyday that you see eight homers in a single game from the Yankees. In fact, the last time the Yankees had seven homers in a game was on May 30,...
