The Red Sox were high on victory after winning last Sunday night’s game against the Indians and scored 8-5 much to the chagrin of David Ortiz who has been forced to take a back seat to refresh him out of one of the biggest letdowns in his career. Likewise the Red Sox also won without help from their top relief pitchers, Jonathan Papelbon as well as the ever resilient Hideki Okajima. As much as they would like to participate, they were ordered to take advantage of their much needed rest before the Red Sox go up against the Cleveland Indians yet again on Wednesday night in New York.
Daisuke Matsuzaka was deemed on of the reasons the Red Sox scored an early victory. His winning pitches were more than enough to take the team to a higher level. The affable pitcher threw 116 pitches over his five taxing innings. He lost out on five hits, six walks and four runs, finally striking out two.

A-Rod said that the talks concerning the contract with the Yankees are “in the bottom of the 5th inning.” Rodriguez did not go into detail but in a video interview with MLB.com, the player referred to negotiations that are leading toward a $275 million, ten-year deal with the New York Yankees. Alex also talked about how he approached the New York Yankees senior vice president Hank Steinbrenner to restart negotiations after Boras told the team Rodriguez was opting out of the final 3 seasons of his $252 million, ten-year deal

The rooster changes are continuously coming across the league. The new York Yankees have experienced the greatest transition so far. One manager is out and another already in. The team’s 3rd baseman chose to opt out of the final 3 years of his contract. The MLB season concluded on Sunday with the Red Sox winning their 2nd WS championship in 4 years. Though it already seems as if that’s old news, and the league has started heating up with several player and managerial moves.

The New York Yankees clinched their 13th consecutive playoff appearance on Wednesday. What was once considered a disastrous season, has turned into one of the most incredible runs in baseball history, prompting teary eyed manager Joe Torre to say, “There were a lot of guys who played through some injuries, played through some fatigue. And, of course, Alex — we sort of rallied around him.” Alex, as in A-Rod, as in Alex Rodriguez, as in one of the greatest baseball players of all time. No player this year has answered his critics in a better way and the Yankees are in the playoffs because of it. With the Yankees going into the playoffs on fire, Yankees tickets will be a hot ticket.

With the MLB playoffs right around the corner, ticket brokers are salivating at the possibility of having the Cubs, Yankees, Redsox, and Mets all making the playoffs. Even more so, the Yankees and Cubs are two of the hottest teams heading in to the fall classic, and Cubs’ fans annual “this is the year” whispers are turning into loud chants. The possibility of a Yankees-Cubs world series would not only be great for insanely priced ticket sales, but it would also be great for baseball. It would be the perfect storm. A Yankees-Cubs would cure the hunger for two championship-hungry markets in the Yankees-Cubs faithful. With huge markets in New York and Chicago, anyone and everyone is going to want a piece of history, and those who capitalize on this momentous occasion will make a lot of money. For now its just a dream, a cindarella story in the ticket broker world. But even dreams can sometimes become reality.

Well it seems that they are on the right track. With a game winning homerun from Johnny Damon the Yankees beat the Red Sox 5-3 . This is there first of 3 games in the Bronx. In my opinion they can and need to pull this one off in order to make the playoffs. Theis will be a huge confidence builder for the Bronx Bombers and would definetly boost their morale in the hopes that they make it to the post seaon. October wont be as nice with the Yankees out of a pennant race. I dont any baseball fan really wants them not to make it…..

An injured soccer player, David Beckham, and his crew watched the New York Yankees trim the Toronto Blue Jays 5-4 in a exciting baseball game with the participation of some of baseball’s greatest hitters.
Beckham together with Los Angeles Galaxy team members prolonged their stay in Toronto after a 0-0 draw against Toronto FC on Sunday and took part in a Blue Jays-Yankees party.
Beckham said he did not know much about baseball, however he could easily recognize the Yankees slugger Alex Rodriquez, who is very much popular with the fans, just like Beckham.
Yankees manager Joe Torre gave Beckham a personal tour around the New York dressing room as David was rather enthusiastic.
Unfortunately, the ankle injury of Beckham prevented him from taking part in many events, and he could only make promotional appearances since making the jump from Spanish giants Real Madrid to Los Angeles.
The player Rodriguez became the youngest player in major league history to hit 500 career homers on Saturday, and he also contributed two hits and a run to the New York struggle, while the Yankees snapped the Blue Jays 8 game home winning period, having achieved their 4th straight victory.
Robinson Cano made an important move, his 2-run double keying a 4-run 6th inning put New York in front 5-3.
Mariano Rivera clinched the victory and struck out the last 3 Toronto batters for his 18th save of the season.
The first half of the season was not the best one for the Yankees, leaving them just a half-game back of Detroit for the American League wild card spot.

If you usually follow baseball new that you probably remember the story of Jason Giambi taking an amphetamines test within the last year. This year the sportsmen took the test again and failed it. Newspapers reported that with the failed amphetamines test, the player has been subjected to 6 additional tests during this year. However, the player declined all comment to the newspaper. The Yankees slugger has recently stated in an interview to USA Today saying that he was probably tested more than anyone else. Lawyers for MLB would also like to talk to Giambi about his comments made last Friday. He said he was wrong for “doing that stuff”. The remarks of the New York Yankees hitter many interpreted as an admission of the use of steroids. Management lawyers insist on holding the meeting
as soon as possible. The failed amphetamines test would not be probably discussed at a meeting to keep a first positive test secret. Hall of Famer Frank Robinson reacted to Giambi’s comments saying that we all, including ownership, players, and everybody should have stood up a long time ago. We should have apologized back then as well and made sure that we had a rule in place and gone forward. So Giambi should speak for himself. If Giambi wanted to confess his past mistakes, then he should have come out and said that he was guilty. He should apologize to baseball and to all
the fans that supported him and baseball over the years. He should promise that he will clean up his act and promise he will not do anything like this in future. But he shouldn’t drag others into the affair, because when he says baseball, logically, that includes everyone in baseball.
