10. Trust It… Wins Will Come!!
Andy Pettitte’s debut did not deliver a win but Friday night he was stellar and did. BYB believes Andy Pettitte will be the key to turn things around (Read HERE) and remember, this is the great Andy Pettitte we are talking about. The rust is gone! Here comes Andy...
9. A Closing Fiasco
With the unfortunate loss of Mo for the season and DRob suffering from his own injury, the Yanks move on to #3. Hoping the old saying "3rd time’s a charm" applies to Rafael Soriano in his role as the pinstriped closer, it goes without saying you always have to think ahead. Read HERE. So here’s a thought Mr. Cashman: If "3rd time is not a charm", you should consider bringing the other Enter Sandman Billy Wagner out of retirement for the Yankee season. Just a thought, and some think it's silly... but it could be a Great One!!
8. Incedible Gesture
This isn't a Yankee thing, but instead it's a life thing. Royals outfielder Jeff Francoeur recently tossed into the stands a $100 bill wrapped around a ball inscribed "Have a few drinks & dogs on me." According to Sports Illustrated "It was a classy gesture to fans - who are enduring a 9-18 season." We at BYB agree. Sometimes fans pay their hard earned money to root for their team and they just want a win! We tip our cap to Francoeur, you're a class act!
7. The Heat is On
Never did I question Robinson Cano’s so called slow start. Neither did BYB. Read WHY THERE'S NO WORRY WHEN IT COMES TO CANO. As long
as I’ve been a Yankee fan, it seems to me the Yanks start off a little
slow but always finish strong. Face it, Cano is a forced to be reckoned
with whether on the field or at the plate.

4. Memory Lane
Hey Yankee Fans... does May 17th, 1998 ring a bell to you? If not, let me remind you that 14 years ago David Wells pitched a perfect game and wrote his own page in the history books, Read HERE. Once citing "if you embrace New York, New York will embrace you"… I believe he proved his statement to be fact! Congrats to you again David Wells for that incredible game and always know Yankee Nation will always embrace you!
3. Yankee Prospect?
Yankee Scouts get your note pads out! This 6 year old has already had the game of his life! Ross Bernath turns an unassisted triple play during a little league game in Georgia. Wow! Can you imagine the things to come? Congrats little guy!
In lieu of Derek Jeter’s phenomenal season, he continues to hit milestones and break records. Whose record is next to be broken in his pursuit? Check out five of the records in sight HERE. All I can say is no record is safe!
Erika Rech was selected as this year’s Yankees Honorary Bat Girl. Her story is an inspiration to us all. Read HERE. At the age of 15 she started a charity called “Breast Intentions” after getting news that her mother and two aunts were diagnosed with breast cancer. The charity provides financial help for every day expenses to those women and their families that are fighting the fight. Now at the young age of 19 she plans to continue adding locations for her charity. Thanks to the New York Yankees and Erica for bringing awareness to this devastating disease! Keep up the fight!
