It was the straw the broke Craig the camel's back.
The father of New York Yankees manager Joe Girardi has died. The Deiters Funeral Home said that Jerry Girardi died on Saturday at age 81. He had suffered from Alzheimer's disease since the 1990s and died in Metamora, Ill.
Derek Jeter doesn't like to talk about injuries. Either he'll play or he won't -- and he will. The captain is leading off for the Bronx Bombers in Game 4 of the ALDS against the Orioles.
I heard Yankees fans whine about Russell Martin, Joe Girardi, Ichiro Suzuki and, well, everyone but the sainted captain at shortstop. I had to roll my window down a foot in case of car (and fan) sickness.
Joe Girardi must finish the job. He took the first step when he put Alex Rodriguez (.083 in the series) on the bench in the ninth inning on Wednesday night and had Raul Ibanez pinch-hit for him. He must now leave him there.
Carmelo Anthony is the undisputed leader of the Knicks, but does his sports loyalty spread across New York City? Not necessarily. The five-time NBA All-Star, who moved from Brooklyn to Baltimore when he was eight years old, is a diehard Orioles fan.
"It's a great opportunity," said Hughes. "I've been looking forward to this, and it's going to be exciting. It's going to be a good atmosphere here and something I really look forward to."
Don't worry about what's right or wrong, or better yet what makes sense. We'll just keep making it up as we go along.
Joe Girardi, so often criticized for relying his trusty stats binder, just had a feeling. And it worked. Boy, did it ever.
Lonn Trost was still fired up after the Bombers' thrilling, 12-inning victory over the Orioles.
To say Craig was fired up would be an understatement - and we don't do 'understatements' round here.
"I trust our guys," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "I'm with them every day. I'm with their approach every day, and it's important that they trust me."
Though the 37-year-old has thrown more innings -- 219 1/3 -- in 2012 than in any other of his big league seasons, he'll be taking the hill on six days' rest. And he'd be lying if he said the extra days aren't to his advantage.
With every swing and miss, memories of A-Rod's amazing run during the Yankees' championship season in 2009 fade even further.
The Hit King has spoken: If you thought Derek Jeter would one day break MLB's all-time hits record, think again.
What is it with the Yankees and transportation? The Bronx Bombers got a taste of the commuter's life following their Game 2 loss in the division series against the Orioles.
I know you're feeling the anxiety during these games. It's okay. That's what you're supposed to feel. It's October baseball.
He has to give a lineup change serious consideration. It's not about ego at this point. It's about surviving and advancing. Chavez could launch a homer or two over the right-field porch, and there's little doubt that Ibanez would hit the ball hard.
There's nowhere for A-Rod to hide -- Joe Girardi isn't ready to drop him in the batting order. As the Yankees' No. 3 hitter, he's going to have to start carrying his share of the load.
For a guy whose name became synonymous with perfection, he never made a lot of dough. He'll have a career salary year by the time the auction is done.
If Commissioner Selig is so insistent on having an extra Wild Card team in each league, then I have a solution. Is it a perfect solution? By no stretch of the imagination. It has its holes, and many would cry foul if it was ever implemented, but I can guarantee than it's far more fair than what's currently in place.
With the hot-hitting Robinson Cano on deck, Alex Rodriguez whiffed -- again -- to end the game Monday night. So is it time to drop him in the batting order? Not according to the Yankees' manager.
Sometimes, postseason experience isn't all that important. How else to explain the Baltimore Orioles beating the playoff-tested New York Yankees, and rookie Wei-Yin Chen outpitching 40-year-old Andy Pettitte?
Playoff under-performers Nick Swisher and Mark Teixeira have gotten off to a hot start in the ALDS.
It's a new season, one Pettitte knows better than most. On Monday night, he'll have his eye on No. 20 -- as in career postseason victories.
