Sometime in the next week or so, Derek Jeter will hold up his right hand to ask the plate umpire for time, give his bat one more ritualistic twirl and then, perhaps take an iconic inside-out swing and send another liner to right field to become the 28th player - and first in four years - to reach the magic number.
Derek Jeter had a pair of RBI singles, Alex Rodriguez drove in three runs and the New York Yankees pounded out a season-high 18 hits in beating the slumping Cleveland Indians for the third straight time, 9-1 on Sunday.
The New York Yankees placed Bartolo Colon on the disabled list Sunday with a strained right hamstring, the latest blow to an already ailing starting rotation.
Alex Rodriguez was hit by a pitch after he homered, Bartolo Colon pitched two-hit ball into the seventh inning before he hurt himself, and the New York Yankees beat the Cleveland Indians 4-0 on a misty, windy Saturday afternoon.
Alex Rodriguez hit a colossal home run, Curtis Granderson also connected and the New York Yankees got back on track with an 11-7 victory over the skidding Cleveland Indians in a game that quickly grew testy Friday night.
With Nick Swisher and Brett Gardner struggling, why shouldn't Joe Girardi turn to Chris Dickerson? The utility outfielder carries plenty of intangible qualities and could be just the spark the Yankees need.
The "Joba Rules" have been debated and dissected since Joba Chamberlain burst onto the Bronx scene in 2007. So now that he likely requires Tommy John surgery for a torn ligament in his right elbow, it had to be asked: Does Yankees general manager Brian Cashman regret how he handled his young hurler?
We all got tired of hearing about the Joba Rules, but the Yankees stuck with them. And in the end, Joba Chamberlain still got injured and needs Tommy John surgery. But don't think it means the Yankees are going to be any less careful with their pitching assets.
David Ortiz got more than even for getting drilled. Ortiz broke loose soon after CC Sabathia hit him with a pitch, starting and finishing a burst that led the Red Sox over the Yankees 8-3 early Friday. "Finally got hit," Ortiz said afterward in a short rant that included some profanity.
Only one day after going on the DL with what was purported to be a muscle strain of the flexor tendons attaching at the inner elbow (medial epicondylitis), a contrast MRI revealed that Joba Chamberlain has a ligament tear that will likely require Tommy John surgery.
Although he has a lot of fun at John Sterling's expense, Craig is really a big fan of the Yankees radio play-by-play man. That's why I think it somewhat pained him to deliver this gem about Sterling's habits on the buffet line.
This morning, Jerry Recco reported the injury news surrounding Joba Chamberlain, who will likely undergo Tommy John surgery and miss the rest of the season. The news set Craig off on a tangent about Joba's father Harlan, which prompted Boomer to agree that his radio partner is a bad guy.
LeBron James spoke before Game 5 of the NBA Finals and with the Series tied at 2-2, the self-anointed "King" declared last night's game in Dallas as a "now or never" game.
Two of CC Sabathia's three losses this year have come against the Red Sox. Josh Beckett beat him both times. That's a scary thought for the Yankees, who have lost seven of eight meetings with Boston this season — including all five at home.
David Ortiz wasn't at all concerned about New York throwing at him in retaliation for Tuesday's showy bat flip. "Why should I?" he said Wednesday. "I don't care about what Joe Girardi said. I come to play the game every day. That's about it. I'm done with that."
When the Yankees needed a big effort Wednesday night, A.J. Burnett came up small. That's the way it has gone for them almost all season against the rival Red Sox.
Yankees setup man Joba Chamberlain joined his colleague, Rafael Soriano, on the DL yesterday. So what exactly is the issue?
Joba Chamberlain was placed on the 15-day disabled list Wednesday with a stiff elbow, leaving the Yankees' bullpen in dire straits.
On Monday morning, Craig coined the three-game Red Sox-Yankees series in the Bronx as a "grand re-opening" of the Major League Baseball season. Yikes.
David Ortiz hit one of three Boston homers to back a tireless Tim Wakefield and the Red Sox extended their domination of the Yankees this season, beating New York 11-6 on Wednesday night to take over first place in the AL East.
The New York Yankees' roster is seriously lacking in depth and it's up to general manager Brian Cashman to play catch-up to the superior Boston Red Sox. There are many needs that Cashman must address as the trade deadline approaches.
How should the Yankees handle David Ortiz's theatrics? The genteel response is to assert the only way to stop such celebrations is to keep him from hitting home runs. Since that is impossible and, frankly, the meek man's way of handling Big Papi, I must side with the second solution. Drill him.
The Yankees understand the occasional loss is merely a part of baseball. Just don't show them up in Yankee Stadium.
Mark Teixeira held his knee and writhed in pain near home plate, thinking the worst after being hit by a pitch from Jon Lester. "I've never seen him show that much pain before," manager Joe Girardi said.
Yankees manager Joe Girardi got to know Dante Bichette Jr. long before New York selected him with its first pick in the baseball draft. Now, Girardi could get a chance to guide the slugging 18-year-old as a budding big league ballplayer.
