Falling behind 3-0 to the pitcher with the second lowest ERA in the league probably wasn’t the best way to go about starting the season’s longest homestand on the right note, but that’s exactly what the Yankees did against the Oakland Athletics and Trevor Cahill. Entering last night’s game, Cahill’s ERA of 2.43 trailed only […]

Over the weekend, it was revealed that Hall of Fame pitcher Bob Feller has been undergoing treatment for leukemia. At 91, Feller is the third oldest living member of the Hall of Fame (behind Bobby Doerr and Lee McPhail, who are both 92), but the former Cleveland Indians fire baller has always been ahead of […]
Ivan the Great: Nova Stars Again for the Yankees in Series Win Over Chicago

After giving up nine runs in back-to-back games, the Yankees needed Ivan Nova to cool down the hot White Sox bats, and the young right hander complied. Nova did more than give the Yankees another well pitched ball game, however…he also gave them options. Although Nova was eye opening in his first major league start […]

Yankees Ace Wins 18th, but Offense Holds the Trump Card
Posted in Baseball, MLB, Yankees on August 29, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
The Yankees looked to C.C. Sabathia to halt a losing streak and help remove the stench of another awful performance by AJ Burnett, but instead it was the bats that saved the day. In each of the first three innings, the Yankees belted a two-run homerun off talented lefty John Danks, building a 6-1 cushion […]
