Ivan Nova Threw A Pitch Right Through His Catcher's Glove
Ivan Nova's season has been a colossal disappointment. Last year he was a breakout star, 16-4 and the Yankees' No. 2 starter, and things were only looking up. Now he's 12-8 with an ERA over 5.00, won't even be in New York's playoff rotation, and looking like yet another of the Yankees' vaunted crop ...
Tonight's Yankees Broadcast Was Temporarily Invaded By A Mysterious "Fucking"
The top of the fifth inning of tonight's Yankees-Twins bout in Minneapolis was extra-spicy for Yankee fans viewing on WWOR (or on MLB Network's simulcast) as a voice seemed to interrupt Jayson Nix's at bat to talk about "play-in games" and someone or something being "fucking hot."...
Ichiro Cleverly Hits The Ball Inside Pitcher's Jersey
We hear plaudits for Ichiro Suzuki a lot. He's consistent, he's one of the best baseball players of the past decade, he curses hilariously in the clubhouse before all-star games. Add a new one—he has such pinpoint control of the ball as it comes off his bat that he can make it essentially unfield-a...
"What's This Fucking Song?" How A Yankees Free Spirit Reluctantly Ushered In Baseball's Entrance-Music Era
Sparky Lyle's arrival in New York was nothing to get excited about. On March 22, 1972, the Boston Red Sox traded the good but nondescript lefty reliever to the Yankees for Danny Cater and a player to be named later. Ho-hum. But when he actually came into the games—that was something else. ...

Video: A Couple Humped In A Yankee Stadium Bathroom Stall For About Three Innings On Saturday [NSFW]
Video below. Lots of male ass (beneath a C.C. Sabathia jersey), so proceed with caution. Here's the story from our tipster:...
Here's Umpire Jerry Meals Trying To Avoid To A Ball And Instead Incurring The Wrath Of Yankees Fans
The New York Yankees are not getting along very well with Jerry Meals. Last week, the New York Daily News compared Meals to legendary goat Jeffrey Maier, and the usually robotic Mark Teixeira was moved to say Meals's out call in the ninth was "terrible"—he even said, " "Sometimes you wonder if the...
Joe Girardi And Joel Sherman Had Themselves A Good Old Fashioned Bitchfest Last Night
Last night, the Yankees lost to the Orioles on a botched third out call that made everyone go a little crazy. It actually started before (and likely caused) the blown call: Mark Teixeira decided sliding head first was a good idea. He was called out. He then said the umps wanted to get home early an...
Your Yankees Schadenfreude Update
Ha! Alex Rodriguez came back from a broken hand today after missing every game since July 24—didn't matter, Yankees still lost to the Rays after Dave Robertson gave up a run on a grounder that just barely—ah! so close!—made it to the outfield. The Yankees have lost six of their last ten....
Here Is A Photo Of Michael Kay And Al Leiter We Think You Should Look At

Joe Girardi Confronted A Heckler During His Postgame Press Conference
Joe Girardi wasn't in the best of moods tonight after the Yankees lost 2-1 to the White Sox, so it's pretty understandable that he'd want to interrupt his postgame media gaggle to go beat the shit out of some Chicago heckler. Most impressive, though, is that Girardi comes back to the huddle and co...
Yankees Pitcher Michael Pineda Arrested On DUI Charges
Yankees pitcher Michael Pineda was arrested on suspicion of DUI in Tampa at 2:35 a.m. today. Police say he had a .128 blood alcohol content....
Josh Hamilton's Fly Ball Damn Near Killed Andruw Jones
The scene is the Yankees game. Right now. Weather's nice in the city. Warm, breezy, with a sun obscured by few clouds. It's a beautiful day to watch baseball, indoors with the windows open, or on television. It's a beautiful day to play baseball, too, if you're anyone but Andruw Jones....
This Hiroki Kuroda Scouting Report Is Apparently Brought To You By His Frustrated Wife
As seen last night on the YES Network. Although, after his two-hit, complete-game shutout of the Rangers, opponents are hitting just .215 against Kuroda at Yankee Stadium....
Netflix Appears To Have Been Acquired By ESPN, FOX Or MLB
Reader Aaron passed along this Netflix suggestion for those looking to sate their military documentary cravings. You've got your Revolutionary war fix, World War II and....what the? Yanks-Sox?...
John Sterling Can't Stop Walking Around The Hotel Lobby In His Bathrobe
The Yankees are staying at the Westin in downtown Detroit for their four-game series with the Tigers, and one guest was kind enough to send along this photo of radio announcer John Sterling strolling the immaculate Westin lobby in sneakers and a robe. He's "been doing this for 2 days in a row so it'...
Eric Chavez Hit His Own Pitcher In The Head With A Throw
]Eric Chavez is a baseball veteran, but it seems he never learned the Little League rule about not throwing a ball to somebody who isn't looking at you. Here he is returning the sphere to his pitcher, Cody Eppley, after its trip around the horn only to have it bonk Eppley right in the noggin....

New York Yankees Facebook Page Announces Derek Jeter To Miss Rest Of Season Due To Sex Change [UPDATE: A Bunch Of Other Teams Hacked Too]
It's gone now, but it seems the Yankees' Facebook was hacked just now as it posted this breaking news about Derek Jeter's upcoming sexual reassignment surgery. Congratulations to the hacker; we didn't even know they had the Internet in Boston....
Ichiro Hit His First Home Run As A Yankee, And John Sterling's Call Embarrassed Everyone
To be fair, Sterling arrived at "The Yankees' Rising Sun [or is it Son?] Says Sayonara" after eliminating more insensitive early drafts like "A mega-jack from the mega-Jap," "A head-turner from the rice burner," and "It's a round-trip for the new Nip." [YES]...
