The past, present and future of the greatest franchise in the history of professional sports.
Game 158 / 86-72 / 2nd / -6 GB : Losing their third straight in maddening fashion, it was one stumble after another tonight in this poorly played game (and series) against the Boston Red Sox. Starter Masahiro Tanaka settled down after a giving up a 3-run homer in the first, while the Yankees actually […]
Game 157 / 86-71 / 2nd / -5.5 GB : Both the postseason clinch celebration and the organization’s 10,000th win are on ice for at least one more night, courtesy of the Boston Red Sox. Michael Pineda was touched up for 6 first inning runs and after responding with 4 of their own in the
Game 156 / 86-70 / 2nd / -5 GB : How many times have we seen this? One or two mistake pitches by a starter, the offense tanks and the Yankees lose another game. Two fastballs from Ivan Nova that had no sink where brutalized by Travis Shaw and Jackie Bradley, Jr. for 2-run homers,
Game 155 / 86-69 / 2nd / -4 GB : On a crisp autumn afternoon in The Bronx, Luis Severino delivered 6 shutout innings, while the offense pounded out 8 runs despite going 3-19 with runners in scoring position. Severino’s outing wasn’t spotless, but he kept his cool and worked himself out of trouble when
Game 154 / 85-69 / 2nd / -4 GB : The Yankees improved their chances to appear in the dreaded Wild card play-in game on October 6th with a well-pitched 2-1 victory over the White Sox. Adam Warren turned in a solid start and the bullpen was perfect. Poor hitting continues to plague New York,
Game 153 / 84-69 / 2nd / -4 GB : Not that anyone is really paying attention to it, but the Yankees dropped to 4 games back in the AL East with 9 to play tonight, in a unspirited 5-2 loss to the White Sox while the Toronto Blue Jays took care of business at
Game 152 / 84-68 / 2nd / -3 GB : After a short but moving ceremony honoring Yogi Berra, Michael Pineda and the New York bullpen out-dueled Yankee nemesis Chris Sale to open the final homestand of the season with a 3-2 victory over the Chicago White Sox. The win increased their lead in the
Game 151 / 83-68 / 2nd / -3.5 GB : It was an emotionally draining day from start to finish. First, the news on Yogi. Then a torturous game on the turf of Rogers Centre, where the Yanks fell to the Blue Jays, 4-0. Barring an unlikely collapse by Toronto in the final 11 games
With great sadness we learned of Yogi’s passing last night — September 22, 2015 — somehow fittingly, 69 years to the day he made his major league debut. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family. More to come.
Game 150 / 83-67 / 2nd / -2.5 GB : With 12 games left in the season and claim to the AL East crown literally in the balance, this was the contest that could tilt it — not by math per se, but by momentum. And thanks in no short measure to the ‘kids’, the
Game 149 / 82-67 / 2nd / -3.5 GB : The Yankees had more than one opportunity to overcome a shaky first inning from Adam Warren, but couldn’t come up with the big hit when they needed it. Toronto starter David Price dominated, allowing just 2 hits over 7 innings — and was aided by
Game 148 / 82-66 / 2nd / -2.5 GB : Leave it to the Mets to have a pitcher on an “innings count”, whatever that means. Matt Harvey was shutting down the Yankees with relative ease but was lifted after 5 innings. The Yankees wasted no time pouncing on his replacements, batting around for a
Game 147 / 81-66 / 2nd / -3.5 GB : Let’s face it — every game is a must-win from here on out, and everything came together this afternoon in Queens for the The Bronx Bombers — pitching, defense and the home run ball. Michael Pineda and bullpen combined for the Yankees’ 4th shutout of
Game 146 / 80-66 / 2nd / – 4.5 GB : The most important six game stretch the Yankees have played since the 2012 season began tonight before a sellout house in Queens, and it didn’t end well. The stress-free Mets were playing with house money, and punched their big brothers in the throat —
Game 145 / 80-65 / 2nd / -3 GB : While Toronto was pounding Atlanta, it was clear early on that the Yankees could not let this one slip. Luis Severino out-dueled pinstripe nemesis Chris Archer, Greg Bird led the offense and the ‘pen held it down — despite a few moments of sheer terror
