Yankees Win 27th World Series : The New York Yankees have won their 27th World Series, defeating the Philadelphia Phillies 7-3 in game 6 behind Hideki Matsui's world-record-tying 6 RBI. Matsui, whose seven-year, $73 million contract has run out, won the MVP after hitting 8-for-13 in the series with 3 home runs and 8 RBI. "We needed this World Series win," writes Joanna Malloy of the New York Daily News . "Those without health insurance, who pay medical bills out of their dwindling savings. Those who trusted the pumped-up muscle of Wall Street, only to ...

... My last few playoff fill-ins on Breakfast Links were wonderful opportunities, for which I remain grateful. This morning, however, I have been passed a bitter cup: Skipper has tapped me to take one for the team on the morning after losing the World Series. Per Skip: Post some links and get out of there. Get on with the offseason while the Blog Lords get a head start cleaning out their lockers. But it ...

Former Orioles Sporting World Series Rings
Roar from 34 - A Baltimore Orioles Blog —

Fair enough. But does he know about Josh Towers? Towers, who ...

... for a victory parade for the first time since 2000, celebrating their 27th World Series championship . There’s sure to be enough confetti and paper to keep the Sanitation Department busy for the rest of the day. And if any vehicles in the parade run into trouble, Joe Girardi can be counted on to ...
