And the Yankees Go Down -- And They Go Down Hard !

It is always great to see the mighty fall and the reign of the king to end. The Cleveland Indians caused just that tonight as they beat the New York Yankees, 6-4, in Game Four of an ALDS to win that series three games to one. Cleveland goes on to play the Boston Redsox in the ALDS. For the Yankees, it is the end of an era. Steinbrenner has already promised that longtime manager Joe Torre is out with this loss. Alex Rodriguez will be moving on to $greener$ pastures, Posada and Rivera are out of New York, and a number of other changes to the roster are expected. 2008 very well may be the year the Yankees finally have a down year as they are in, for them, as close to a rebuilding process as it would get in New York.

For us fans of the game tormented by the Yankees this past 13 years, these changes are greatly welcome and refreshing. Hallelulah !

A Lost Story in History

All baseball fans know about Don Larson's perfect game in the 1956 World Series. But here is a story about a near no-hitter nine years earlier on baseball's biggest stage.
