As the Yankees prepare to end a historic era in their ultra historic stadium and then shift their focus to the April 16th New Stadium Opener against the Cleveland Indians, I would like to take this time to make fun of them.
I'd like to remind you all of the last ever playoff game in Yankee Stadium.
Winnnnnerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!
Yes.. In fact the last team to win a playoff game in Yankee's Fabled Stadium will forever be the Cleveland Indians of North East Ohio Central America.
How do you like them apples?
Let's place the Indian stamp on another piece of history and win the FIRST ever game at the new Yankee Stadium?
Yes.. We Own them and that stadium..... I have declared.
Cliff Lee... Started the last game at Yankee Stadium for the winning team.
So.. Like I said.. Cleveland.. Owns Yankees Stadium and its final memories.. We Are Awesome.
Speaking of Lee, he participated in the Direct Energy Backyard Challenge this year, I'm sure you've seen the commercials.
That one needs a little more glitter. You can't fax glitter, btw.. At least not with that attitude.
What wasn't glittery was Cliff's ERA. He got lit the heck up by a few kids..
To put a little perspective on Lee's rocky outing, which came just 17 hours after a no-decision Wednesday against the Twins, the two innings were good for an ERA of 63.00. The 14 runs he surrendered at the mercy of boys and girls ages 5-14 were more than he allowed in his past five Major League starts combined.Yikes Cliff. Don't bring that effort in your last two games.
Oh and I really have come to love Carl Willis. A lot of people wanted Carl out and didn't like the job he was doing a few years ago. But the Indians stuck with him and oh look at this, one Cy Young award winner, another on the way. Success stories like Fausto Carmona, Cliff Lee of course and what looks to be a reclamation project in Anthony Reyes.
Carl is a talker as evidence by this article here, but it's nice to see Carl have so much success after people wanted him out. He's a top notch guy. Not the greatest pitching coach, but a damn good one that has a lot of bragging rights with a couple of Cy Young winners to be.
And oh.. It's official.. Columbus is coming to town, or at least we are coming to Columbus. Hurrah.

Great the Tribe won the last playoff game ever at the Old Yankee Stadium. That's pretty sad that's all you have to hang you hat on.
I don't know if you read this blog often, but it was a joke, like some of the stuff I do. Jeeze, no sense of humor in the world today.
