Now, That's Boring

Yep, the Yankees won again. Wow. As if that wasn't boring enough, baseball genius Ken Rosenthal, who last year was bored to tears in a playoff series that was mostly decided by a run or two a game, asked Yankees catcher Jorge Posada this fascinating question in a post-game interview:

How gratifying is it to win for the first time since 2000?

As if the Yankees winning for the millionth time wasn't boring enough.

Baseball commentator and former first baseman Ron Fairly used to say that baseball is really a simple game. It's certainly possible to over-intellectualize what's happening on the field. I'd have to say that this is one sin Fox Sports will never be guilty of.

Congratulations to the Yankees, and their fans, and my sympathies to the Phillies and Jorge Posada.
