    Aaron Boone's playoff walk-off home run encapsulates the Yankees/Red Sox rivalry.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    Jason Giambi's moon-shot grand slam homerun to dead centerfield, in the pouring rain, in the 14th inning, after 2 AM, to win the game for the Yankees against the Minnesota Twins, 13-12. --or--Holy Cross (#16 Seed) upsets Minnesota (#1 Seed) 4-3 in OT, in the NCAA West Regionals hockey opening round in front of 10,000 fans at UND.

    Hey Rob,

    After 86 years in “The House that Ruth Built,” it still felt weird imagining the Yankees in a new building. In my third trip to the new Yankee Stadium, there were events that finally made it begin to feel like home.

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