World Series

Nick Swisher is a one man wrecking crew this postseason, but the problem is he is wrecking his own team the New York Yankees.

For the Yankees to win the World Series against the Phillies, Swisher is going to have to step it up or move aside.  

Swisher has four hits in 32 at bats with 11 strikeouts and is currently batting  only .125 this postseason headed into the World Series against the defending World Champs.

Nick has to understand he has to produce in the postseason to really be a Yankee or sit out for the team.

Recently, I wrote a preview to the upcoming World Series between the New York Yankees and Philadelphia Phillies.  Since I wrote that I have seen other articles being written about the upcoming World Series too.

I have been curious to see what other people's opinions have been, so I read most of these types of articles.  Most I have agreed with their match up selections until I came across one written by Greg Fertel. 

Those living in New York City, Jay-Z fans, or just music lovers in general will no doubt be familiar with my title, kind of.

Well folks, we are finally here; the World Series.  This has been a long season that has been filled with some pretty interesting moments.  Whether it was Alex Rodriguez admitting to steroid use, Randy Johnson winning his 300th game, or Ichiro collecting his 2,000th hit in only 1,402 games, it has been a great season.

For Rays fans, it's probably the worst outcome possible. The Yankees versus the Phillies in the World Series.

It may be hard for those outside the Tampa Bay area to understand, but there's something nasty about Tampa Bay fans feelings toward New York and Philadelphia.

First, let's talk Yankees. There's good reason for Rays fans to hate the Yankees. The Yankee fans (not all but many) are some of the most obnoxious fans that come to Tropicana Field.

Sunday night’s ALCS game was a watershed event in my young life.

After relentlessly hating them for years and years—since before I can remember—I found myself almost kind of happy to see the Yankees beat the Angels.

"Empire State of Mind" is Jay-Z's latest hit off of his newest album, The Blueprint 3 . The hit song has been blasting through radios all over the country. It has also been heard throughout Yankee Stadium, as the song is also Derek Jeter's walk-up song throughout the 2009 post-season.

It was midway through the season when I said on Bleacher Report that I wanted a Phillies-Yankees World Series. At that point, I stated that the Yankees would win in six games.

Now that I am here, I want it all.

Sabathia, Pettitte, Rivera, Rodriguez, Jeter, Damon, and Posada.

Lee, Hamels, Martinez, Howard, Utley, Ibanez, and Werth.

Lefthander Andy Pettitte and the New York Yankees defeated the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim 5-2 Sunday night in the Bronx to capture their 40^th American League Pennant.

Pettitte, 37, a two-time All-Star selection who has accumulated the most victories of any MLB pitcher since 1995, allowed only seven hits and one earned run in 6 1/3 innings.
