The Yankees are 0-6 at home against the Red Sox this year, having first suffered the ignominy of being swept at New Yankee Stadium for the first time in its three-season history by Boston in mid-May, then less than a month later being on the receiving end of an even more dubious distinction, as [...]
The Yankees’ starting rotation has performed surprisingly well thus far in 2011, with the 4th best ERA (and FIP) in the American League. An amazing year from , surprising effectiveness from Freddy Garcia and , and adequate years from and
The video above is from last night’s Mets-Phillies game, and was filmed moments after news began to filter out about Osama Bin Laden’s death at the hand of US forces. When I saw that clip, I instantly recalled October 2001.

During last night’s game, some fans at Yankee Stadium started the Wave in the 7th inning of a 9-3 game, spurring some debate between myself, Sean McNally (@SeanMMcNally), and Ben Kabak (@bkabak) about the etiquette of the Wave and whether it is ever appropriate.

My friends at River Ave. Blues have been kind enough to provide a bully pulpit platform for me to explain Why The Wave Doesn’t Belong at Yankee Stadium, so please head on over there and check my guest post out.
The RAB guys — in addition to being [...]
The New York Times published a fantastic op-ed today:
There are many reasons for the price explosion, but a critical factor has been the ability of businesses to write off tickets as entertainment expenses — essentially a huge, and wholly unnecessary, government subsidy.
These deductions have led to higher ticket prices in two ways. [...]
By popular demand as a follow-up to my study of how the Yankees have fared at Fenway Park since 2003, I’ve decided to explore what the Yankees have done vs. the Red Sox at home since 2003, and then we’ll calculate all the totals to find out how the [...]
the Associated Press (props to Ben over at RAB):
Boxing is making its long-awaited return to Yankee Stadium, where icons like Muhammad Ali and Joe Louis once plied their trade. WBA junior middleweight champion Yuri Foreman will defend his title against former welterweight champion Miguel Cotto on June 5 at the [...]
