Yankees have lost one game to the Rays and one game to their defense!

If the Yankees can win the next two games, I really like their chances with Cam in a deciding game. He just doesn't pitch two clunkers in a row.

Lineup shakeup as Boone challenges the analytics gods!

McMahon benched for Caby!

Chisholm, benched for Volpe!

Jones dopped to 8th, Rice dropped to 2nd, Wells upped to 6th, and Grisham back in leadoff!

Yankees aren't losing tonight boys. Mark that down.

I want to say this now, not after the fact. If Fried pitches well tonight, and there is a Game 4, do they turn the start over to Rodón tomorrow night?

With Jazz benched, is there any reason to assume Jazz will be back in 2027 (whenever they start), unless it's on a in year, prove it deal (not a QO)?

After the Yankees win tonight, Rodon will start Game 4 and the Yankees will win that one too.

"This charming and meticulously researched book will remind you of baseball’s power to change and enrich lives far beyond the diamond."

—Jonathan Eig, New York Times best-selling author of Luckiest Man, Opening Day, and Ali: A Life

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
