All things considered, it was a solid year for the Yankees even if it didn’t live up to the perennial World-Series-or-bust expectations of their fans.

I hate the cliche of a “must-win game,” because every game is a “must-win,” especially in the playoffs. With that being said, today’s game is a must-win game. It’s not over yet, but Milwaukee will have to get the bats going if they want to have any chance at making this a series. Today’s starter […]
