The Yankees are 7-1 over their last eight games.

The Yankees are suddenly rolling!

Full recap in the morning from me.

what kind of scheduling is it that allows the sox to have an OFF day on a wednesday? wednesday is NEVER an off day

You know what I do expect? I expect Narry the Stooge not to give up a game-ting, two-run double (missin…

"Scattering The Ashes has all the feels. Paul Russell Semendinger's debut novel taps into every emotion. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll reexamine those relationships that give your life meaning." — Don Burke, writer at The New York Post

"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."
