    Long night. Many chances to win it. Jeter with a rough night.

    Did anyone catch the Jeter special on Fox Sports 1 from earlier this week? My dad and I just watched it. Good tribute by current players in baseball and former players.

    Much needed win and a solid outing by Tanaka. Needed his innings today after last night.

    I am loving this Ellsbury signing more and more so far.

    Ellsbury is so good at baseball. I hate that I love him

    I miss the fat CC. Somebody run down to BK and grab that man some double whoppers with cheese.

    Rivera has some criticism for Cano. Kind of surprised to read Rivera criticizing someone.

    Great win last night. As important of a May win as you can get.

    Alright finally retiring #6. Good stuff.

    torre, tino, paulie, goose in 2014
    bernie in 2015

    tino is the odd man in this equation. but whatever... four time world champion after filling some gigantic shoes at 1st base.

    i am the happiest for bernie. so long overdue. when i saw the e-mail come across from yankees.com, i just saw the 2014 names and was cursing that bernie wasn't included at all. then i saw the 2015 mention.. weird he is being singled out and will be next year. wonder why that is?

    I mean, I love tino but he does not belong touching monument park. That said, just happy Torre is getting his

    This is funny

    NJ.com: You also wrote about going to Yankee Stadium once to taunt Derek Jeter. Why did you do that?

    Randolph: I’ve been in baseball all my life. I’ve always wanted to sit in the stands and watch the game. Have a hot dog, a beer -- I wanted to be a Bleacher Creature for a day. I never had the opportunity. So I was out of the game a couple of years ago. Mitch Modell was really cool, he let me borrow a couple of tickets, they were great seats right behind the Yankees on-deck circle. I really was trying to get his attention, because most people call him Jeets, but I call him Jet. I was four or five rows back, I thought I was audible enough, I kept saying, "Hey Jet! Jet!" I didn't want to talk too loud because I didn't want to blow up my spot. I was trying to be discreet. By the fourth inning, I said to my son, "Is he ignoring me?" I stood up and said, "Hey Derek! You suck!" [laughs] His head swivled around, and he said, “Hey Will-O, you son of a [expletive]." In typical Jeter fashion, he goes up and hits a line drive double to right center field and he kind of tipped his cap to me and second base. I looked at my son and said: "Now I can die and go to heaven. I’m one of the few Yankees fans that heckled Derek Jeter at Yankee Stadium."

    Things are not in a good place, my friends. Yesterday was frustrating as hell.

    So, last season was the line up. This season, it's the rotation. At least Tanaka is what we paid for so far (knock on wood).
