SEE JETER RUN

Our Captain, Derek Jeter, played 5 innings today in the Yankees exhibition game against the Pittsburgh Pirates today.  He played the field, he hit, he ran and the world was perfect... well, almost.  He grounded into a double play and grounded out again his second time up... going 0-2.  I don't care about that... the game doesn't count.  In fact, you're really not going to see us talk about the exhibition games on BYB much, unless someone makes an outstanding play to try and earn their spot or something happens to impress us.  Scores don't matter right now... it's like T-ball.

Jeter left to a standing ovation and I tip my cap to the crowd for that... that's class.  Hopefully it's like that all season.  This guy needs to be reminded every game of what he means to us.

OK fine, in case you were wondering, the Yankees lost 8-2. But.. again, it doesn't matter. Chill.

The news of the day is Derek Jeter playing and playing with no pain or setback.  That's big... that's our Captain. Pass it on.
