While breaking down the Ivan Nova-Doug Fister matchup, Steve was rudely interrupted by back-to-back jacks off the bats of Detroit.
With the Yankees' early exit from the postseason, Craig was looking forward to hearing a sobbing Suzyn Waldman, who admittingly cries at Cinderella.
Following Thursday night's Yankees loss in the Bronx, Jerry Recco had all sorts of post-game audio to share during his first update of the morning.
It's all over now. The Yankees hosted their first ever elimination game at the new Yankee Stadium and the result was not how many fans had it scripted.
The Detroit Tigers survived a tense trip back to Bronx, with Jose Valverde and the bullpen holding on time and time again to beat the New York Yankees 3-2 Thursday night to win the deciding Game 5 of their AL playoff series.
The infield shift is on in October, and teams are leaning right. Looking to make life difficult for those pull-happy sluggers, playoff opponents keep clogging one side of the diamond when the boppers come to bat.
Here we go: Thursday night. Game 5. It's all on the line for the Yankees, and all eyes in the Bronx will be on rookie sensation Ivan Nova.
It had gotten to the point where women and children would shudder, and scream, and run and hide for cover at the mere mention of his name.
Jerry Recco began his first update of the day offering a preview of Thursday night's Game 5 between the Tigers and the Yankees at the Stadium.
With the Yankees preparing for the first ever elimination game at the new Yankee Stadium, Boomer & Craig were all about setting the stage for a Game 5 Thursday night in the Bronx.
All the months of preparation, all the millions of dollars, all the hopes of the New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers come down to this: Ivan Nova vs. Doug Fister for a berth in the AL championship series.
With the season on the line, the Yankees sent A.J. Burnett to the mound and hoped for the best. New York's $82.5 million enigma came through when his team needed him most.
There was a redemption theme throughout the night, as Derek Jeter atoned for two brutal strikeouts in Game 3 by whacking a double last night to give his team a 2-0 lead – one the beleaguered A.J. Burnett and three relievers wouldn't surrender.
Derek Jeter, yeah, he knows a little about playing under the October lights. So when Rick Porcello pitched a couple balls over the middle of the plate, he and the Yankees took advantage.
Craig was so confident that the Yanks would win Tuesday night, he suggested placing a wager. He convinced Boomer, Jerry, Al, Eddie & Dominique to go in with him.
