Yankees fans were closely watching the forecast on Wednesday night, as a nor'easter was bearing down on the area.
Derek Jeter and the New York Yankees were eliminated from postseason contention, wasting a three-run lead Thursday in a 9-5 loss to Nelson Cruz and the AL East champion Baltimore Orioles.
When Jeter announced he would retire at the end of the season, I began asking those around the game for their favorite stories. Here is what they told me.
Olbermann ripped apart Jeter's stats, mystique and farewell tour for nearly seven minutes to open his show Tuesday. Carton believed it was a grasp at attention, nothing more.
MLB Commissioner Bud Selig says Alex Rodriguez will be returning with a clean slate, just like the other players who served their suspensions in the Biogenesis scandal.
Joe Girardi wasn't sure what would happen if Jeter and the Yankees were rained out. "That's a great question," he said. "I'm sure it would upset a lot of people."
Nelson Cruz hit his major league-leading 40th home run and the Baltimore Orioles pushed Derek Jeter and the Yankees to the brink of playoff elimination, beating New York 5-4.
With his team coming off its first division title in 17 years, you'd think J.J. Hardy would have more important things to worry about. But the veteran shortstop was recently posed with a scenario he just couldn't ignore.
Derek Jeter has had as close to perfect a career as a major leaguer can have. Still, five years from now, don't expect the New York Yankees' captain to be a unanimous selection to baseball's Hall of Fame.

Last year, the manager sent Jeter and Andy Pettitte to the mound with two outs in the ninth inning of New York's last game at Yankee Stadium to remove Mariano Rivera.
When Derek Jeter plays his final game at Yankee Stadium, Bob Sheppard will exit along with the New York Yankees' captain.
I asked those who played alongside, managed or coached Jeter along the way for a favorite story or memory, something that stood out when they thought of the captain. This is what they told me...
Deep in the 11th hour, there has never been a better moment for MLB to defuse a problem that has been tick-tick-ticking for years: America's pastime takes too much time.
Derek Jeter began his final series at Yankee Stadium by breaking open the game with a two-run double, and he had three RBIs to lead the New York Yankees over the Baltimore Orioles 5-0 Monday night.
