Apparently this stadium is closing

Who knew?

And it’s nice that everyone is assuming that it will be a Yankee who throws out the last pitch.

“the key for brian burress in this game is to maybe pretend that he’s whitey ford,” says joe

Yes, I should say that, which, I should say that.

I think I speak for everyone when I say

it’s a day game? Really? And it’s already started?

I'm here

And it just realized that this game was on.

My best game plan is to sit on the bench and call out specific instructions like 'C'mon Boog,' 'Get ahold of one, Frank,' or 'Let's go, Brooks.' -Earl Weaver

This just in

the old Yankee Stadium’s name will be changed in all the record books to “Derek Jeter Stadium”, because THAT’s how above and beyond all mere mortals “The Captain” is.

At least, if you listened to the YES commentators, that’s what you’d think.

Meanwhile, Go Burres, with your 0 ER in the bottom of the 5th.

Oh, Joe Angel. I missed you so.

"The one constant through all the years, Ray, has been baseball. America has rolled by like an army of steamrollers. It has been erased like a blackboard, rebuilt and erased again. But baseball has marked the time. This field, this game: it's a part of our past, Ray. It reminds of us of all that once was good and it could be again."

I've been watching this all day

Burress just always seems to kick ass against the Yanks.

But we’re DEFINITELY about to lose this one, two on, no out in bottom of ninth.

A nice end to the last game in Yankee Stadium.
