This article was originally published in support of Relay for Life. If you have read this before, then I apologize, but please considering donating at least $1 to Make a Wish in the memory of Josiah Herring. In light of several recent events I felt compelled to revisit cancer awareness and have not had the time for a new article. I Promise to have a new article out soon in support of the cause.

Thank you everyone!

The Yankees have put together an unbelievable streak of magical wins, but is Yankee Stadium and its short right field porch New York’s “magic wand?” Can sitting back and waiting for a solo HR really translate to October success?

Thanks in advance! I would love to hear your feedback and comments. Take care.

Hi David
I know it's not exactly the kind of work Leroy Watson and Dr. Giles were looking to inspire through the new article tag "Sports and STEM, but as always I took my own road. Hope you enjoy.
