It has been 15 years since the Yankees have won a World Series title. They foiled the Philadelphia Phillies' bid to repeat back in 2009, but it has been frustration since for a franchise whose fan base isn't satisfied unless they win it all.
Saturday, the Yanks needed 10 innings to eliminate the Cleveland Guardians, and the author of that win was outfielder Juan Soto.......
Now, the Bronx Bombers await either the Mets or the Los Angeles Dodgers, who resume the NLCS tonight at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers lead, 3-2, but reportedly will have the bullpen pitch this elimination game. This strategy backfired in game 2 last Monday, so is Dave Roberts tempting fate again?
I've read of people who believe that MLB and Fox want the Dodgers in a rematch from 1981. They're less convinced of a Subway Series rematch, the last of which was in 2000. Why would Fox want Yankees-Dodgers? A matchup of two of the biggest names in the game, Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani, both of whom would be in their first World Series. Judge is already there, but will Ohtani join him?
Stay tuned.
