I am a diehard Yankees fan. Die hard enough to drive almost 3 hours for game 1 of the ALCS on Friday. It was a big victory for us, it is important to take the 1st game. Especially against these pesky Angels. Even better was Saturday’s victory in the 13th inning. Jerry Hairston jr came to score on a throwing error which won us the game (photo of him above sees him getting the A.J. Burnett traditional pie in the face, for the player who helped us win a walk off victory!)
I have a great, great feeling about this year. There is something different about this team. These guys are bonding, having fun, and playing hard. We haven’t seen this for almost a decade!!! They kick off game 3 today at 4pm eastern time! Today will be hard agaisnt the pesky Jared Weaver, but I think momentum is even more pesky!
For once, local radio station z100 actually did something someone good. They created a remix of Jay-Z’s “Run This Town” and changed the lyrics for the Yankees postseason run. It was supposed to just be a joke, but listeners enjoyed it so much they saw it more as a good luck charm! Thousands of calls came in to the station requesting it, and it even got the Yankees attention, as it was actually played during the game on friday!
The Yankees are 2-0 in the ALCS series, so as long as they keep winning I’ll keep blasting this!
