As Mariano Rivera closes in on career save No. 600, Joe Girardi wants to know where all the attention is.
On Wednesday, the Yankees last home game before the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the three Yankees still with the team from that time sat down to share some remembrances and perspectives.
Robinson Cano hit a three-run homer into the Kauffman Stadium fountains, Russell Martin and Derek Jeter each drove in a pair and the New York Yankees beat the Kansas City Royals 9-7 on Tuesday night.
Derek Jeter had three hits and drove in three runs, including two with a go-ahead triple in the sixth inning, and struggling A.J. Burnett finally won a game in August for the Yankees in their 7-4 victory over the Royals on Monday night.

With the recent struggles from Mariano Rivera, Steve decided to open his Thursday night show teasing Yankee fans and asking the question: has father time caught up with the great Mo?
Mariano Rivera stood on the mound, staring at where the ball landed in the seats in right field. Not a scene the great closer or anyone else at Yankee Stadium had seen very often.
Bobby Abreu hit his second homer of the game, a two-out, two-run shot off Mariano Rivera in the ninth inning, and the Los Angeles Angels then pulled a trick to trap Curtis Granderson for the final out to beat the Yankees 6-4 Tuesday night.
Yankees manager Joe Girardi insists his team will recover from one of its most painful losses of the season. That could be difficult Tuesday night with struggling A.J. Burnett set to take the mound against Dan Haren, who has never lost in the Bronx.
Despite the fact that the Bombers started slowly against Boston in 2009 and still won the World Series is meaningless to Yankees fans -- because they want Boston's blood. It's quite understandable considering this is baseball's – if not America's – iteration of the Hatfields and McCoys.
The relief pitching that had been a strength for the Yankees this weekend failed them in the end. That's the way it's going this season against the Red Sox.
The Yankees were on the verge of leaving Boston with the division lead and a chance to salvage what had been a lost season against the Red Sox. Then Mariano Rivera blew a save in the ninth.
Reliever Boone Logan struck out Adrian Gonzalez with the bases loaded to end the fifth inning, and the Yankees came back to beat the Boston Red Sox 3-2 on Friday night to win their eighth straight game and take over the lead in the AL East.
Freddy Garcia (10-7) struck out six in six innings and allowed two runs on five hits to send the Yankees 22 games over .500, their highest point of the season.

The New York Yankees' 16-7 defeat to the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday was further proof that their bullpen is not up to snuff. It's gotten to the point that I've come up with an adjective to describe Boone Logan's futility: 'Loganeous'
After a solid first half, the Yankees enter the second portion of the season with question marks popping up all over the place. Ben Kabak joined me talk about what to expect from the Yankees in the coming months.
Last season at the All-Star break I did some Yankees midseason awards, so I thought it would be good to start a tradition here and do them for the second straight year.
