Official N.Y. Yankees 2009 SEASON THREAD (103-59) WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!

[briannnnn]

Someone I know took a four day vacation starting tomorrow and *will* catch Opening Day at the Stadium.

I wish I could get tix...but I'll settle for catching it on TV somewhere...

 

[yoda]

My boy called me today saying he got 2 tickets for 200 a piece.

Recession FTMFL.

Something from Mark Feinsand's Yankee blog that should give us hope that Wangwill get some of that Viagra.

We all know that Chien-Ming Wang has allowed 15 runs in his first two starts, but do you know who the last Yankees pitcher was that gave up 15 or more runs in his first two starts of a season?

It was David Cone. The year? 1998. (Thanks to Yankees media relations guru Jason Zillo and our friends at the Elias Sports Bureau for that nugget)

For those that may not remember, Cone was 0-1 with a 14.90 ERA after those two dismal starts, though the Yankees managed to win one of them in a 17-13 slugfest against the A's. Cone went on to finish the season 20-7 with a 3.55 ERA, leading the American League in wins.

Some more Swish-related items (from LoHud)

Wanted to mention these two Nick Swisher-related items:

• Rays manager Joe Maddon, who is a tremendously good guy, sent Swish over a lineup card from the game he pitched on Monday.

• Swish drew an X on his elbow yesterday, a tribute of sorts to Xavier Nady.


Also, ESPN interviewed Swish before the game last night about his thoughts of the new Stadium...he was saying the locker room was bigger than a Wal-Mart

 

[bkmac]

When Nick Swisher was being interviewed by Kim Jones, Burnett came out of no where and kissed him on the cheek

. Anyway, Kim Jones was interviewing Joba, and she asked about the kiss, sayinghow close is this team, blah blah blah.

"We don't want any drive-by kisses going on. It's dangerous, who knows what could happen." - Bob Lorenz

Were shots fired at Joba by Bob Lorenz?

When Lee Mazzilli was introduced, he looked like he had just whacked someone

.

Indians being introduced. I can't wait to see the reaction Pavano gets.

 

[onewearz]

pavano got ethered

 

[frankie valentino]

Oh lord, can you imagine if David Wells was on the same team as Swisher?

 

[sirius lee handsome]

Yo it just sounded like ol Kelly was about to blow that Star Spangled Banner. Sounded a bit indecisive.

 

[true 3 blue]

Yall interrogating me.

I got the tickets for free.

 

[ravagebx]

I could see the f16 flyover from my window as they headed over the Hudson
