START SPREADIN THE NEWS!!!!!!!!
WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP NUMBER 27!!!!!!! I TOLD YOU YANKEES IN SIX!!!!! FIRST TIME SINCE 2000 (yes, I know some have never or have not had the feeling for many years). Last night, I saw a picture of a past World Series ring on a friends Facebook profile that positively made me drool. Apparently Molly has a connection in the offices of the NEW YORK YANKEES! She was allowed to wear the ring for a day! Tonight’s hero… Hideki Matsui…Godzilla himself. Nearly became the first player in history to hit for the cycle in World Series play. A two run home run, a two run single, a double… just missing the triple. The most uttered phrase in sport’s history… “The Yankees are world champions!”
Ol’ Blue Eyes is singin now!
MVP….. HIDEKI MATSUI!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fans in Japan are celebrating at 1.07PM. 6 of the seven RBIs! Not too bad for a DHer whose contracts expires this year and is questionable?
I was even at work through the first three innings with my cell phone giving updates!
Winning pitcher… Andy Pettite!
Game 5 was a fluke… just getting it back to NYC… and deservedly so to christen the new cathedral right!
Great series… great games… great season! Ok… maybe this will be the end of my Yankee’s posts for the next 5-6 months.
And the OTHER fab four: Pettite, Mariano RIVERA… BIG MO, Jorge Posada, AAAAAND CAPTAIN JETER!!!!!! OK… SO MAYBE THE PARADE ON FRIDAY!!! No thanks to the brilliant (HA!!!) COMMENTARY OF JOE SCHMO BUCK!
So… until spring training begins….. THE YANKEES WIN! THAAAAAAAAAAAAAA YANKEES WIN!
FINAL SCORE…. PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES 3, WORLD CHAMPION NEW YORK YANKEES 7!!!!!!
