Yeah, man. Great comeback and great day. Was fantastic seeing number 6 and 51 in pinstripes again. Just fucking awesome. The Tino homerun during the old timers game was a highlight.
Crowd during the actual game was a bit subdued, probably beacause of the slow start and the long day in gerenal. Great time though and great win.
my gf walked into the room during the old timers game and said " tino ? bernie? cone? ....we are getting old "
sad but true :(
i post on the board of a band that doesn't exsist anymore .......i need my head examined.......
I counted 18 old-timers who played in the Joe Torre era. I'd be curious to guess who was at the first old-timers day in 1946.
Just off the top of my head, I'd guess the following might have been there:
Babe Ruth, Tony Lazzeri, Frank Crosetti, Earle Combs, Joe Dugan, Waite Hoyt, Bob Shawkey, Wilcy Moore.

Tino's home run today brought back great memories of Bernie scoring on a Tino home run. Tino was always my second favorite player, behind Jeter when I was growing up.

Just read the yanks are interested in a 15 year old in the mexican league, he has a 5.29 era but is playing against competition between double and triple a, from what am reading. That's pretty insane. Dude could have 4-5 more years of development and be in th big leagues by 20

who is he? how'd you enjoy the oldtimers day ceremonies?
Roberto Osuna, nephew of former Yankee Antonio Osuna. Sounds like he is in line for a seven figure bonus. After a somewhat lackluster draft, it would make it up big time if they could sign this kid. I just can't believe he is playing against that competition at that age.
Old timers day was great. Got in a few minutes late but made it for the 1st base side introductions, the good introductions. Was a long day but a lot of fun. Bernie and Torre got great ovations, was really hoping Bernie would hit a home run but I was happy to settle for Tinos. The Monahan cermony was nice but long. Great day overall though.

The old timers? A couple. I think they try and get 3 in but with all the ceremonies they don't have that much time. Pretty much play until they have to get the field ready for the actual game.
Fuck yeah, with them showing Uecker, I just realized they play at 1 on Thursday so I will be listening to him instead of Sterling while at work. Best news of the day.

Yeah, man. I am pumped. Haven't been this excited about a day weekday game in a while.
by the way if you're scoring at home, eight of Swisher's 10 home runs have been since May 27.

This team is in a great spot right now. They have won 13 out of 17 with a scrap heap of starting pitching. Hughes and Colon coming back in the next couple weeks are almost like pretty solid trade deadline moves, if they can come back healthy. The depleted bullpen has been fine. I am liking this teams chances in the AL East. I think Boston is a great team but if the Yanks can add a piece or two, I think they have a shot to make a run at this thing, as long as the big guys stay healthy.
Going to be a fun summer pennant race this year between the Yankees, Boston, and Tampa.
Cliffy, don't forget about Jeter coming back, also.

I hear you. And here's to hoping he doesn't come back until mid next week so I can see 3,000 on Sunday the 10th.
I think today is the day he's off the DL, but I hear they're gonna have him do a couple rehab stints to get loose again. The pre-game show yesterday, I think Jack Curry said he probably won't be available for the Subway Series this weekend.

Yeah, I don't see him being ready for this weekend. He ran the bases for the first time yesterday and took some ground balls and BP. Would be pretty sweet if it was middle-late next week. I would love to see him hit 3,000 in person.

That was a shot.
That $10 million option for next year is looking pretty good right now. Wasn't so much early this season.

this is what a real division looks like....unlike the nl east ....with 1 good team

Yeah, going to be a fun summer. At least it looks like the wild card will once again come out of the east. 3 teams for 2 spots.
