Section 203: Yankees/Angels Preview and Predictions
I hope we don’t see this again. It happened in ‘02. It happened again in ‘05. They’ve always played us tough, rallied behind their monkey to pummel our bullpen (Mo included), and protected their homefield. (Which isn’t in Los Angeles. It’s in Anaheim. That’s like if the NY Giants called themselves the New York Giants [...]

Lately it’s been all fun and games for the Bronx Bombers after sweeping the Red Sox over the weekend to clinch the AL East, beating the Royals with their Triple-A team on Monday night, and last night’s come-from-behind walk-off victory off the bat of Juan Miranda. This was the 15th walk-off and the 50th come-from-behind victory [...]

“Yes. I know I’m awesome. Thank you. Thank you. Where’s my contract extension?” It’s been a while since I posted. There’s been a lot of reflection and more importantly, a lot of (not-so-current) current events to cover since my last post. i.e. I’m not going to be so lazy anymore. [...]

Keeping this entry short and sweet. Won’t gloat too much since a 6.5 game lead isn’t insurmountable. (see Mets 2008). But it was a good series. Well-pitched and great contributions from all of the newcomers to the Yankees-Red Sox rivalry. Caught my first rivalry game live on Sunday night with PineTimePlayer. And the Stadium was buzzing. The [...]

Tuesday, July 14, 2009
After seeing three Asian players selected to the Major League Baseball All-Star Game in 2006 and two in 2007, I was disappointed to see that Ichiro was the only Asian player selected to the All-Star game. The last few reserve selections – especially in the outfield – are usually toss-ups, but I felt that Shin-Soo [...]

Sorry for being away the past two days. Been swamped at the Office. (Speaking of which. Saw Steve Carell and Tina Fey filming a movie recently. Don’t know what it’s about, but Carell + Fey? Put me in for $12.50 or whatever they charge for a movie ticket nowadays.) Was able to catch the Yankees game tonight [...]

Welcome to Section 203 – the new home of the Bleacher Creatures and my new Yankees Blog as well. Blue Jays v. Yankees – 7/5/2009 At first it looked like a bigger blowout than the typical haircut of the Bridge and Tunnel crowd in South Jersey in the summer. Brett Cecil worked methodically to ensure his team [...]

Much has happened since the last edition of the Asian Guy Power Rankings – we witnessed the deaths of Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and Blake Griffin’s career. Mariano Rivera recorded his 500th career save. However, it’s been a pathetically slow and uneventful two weeks for the AGPR. Daisuke Matsuzaka was disqualified from the AGPR in [...]
