The offense at Yankee Stadium may finally be evening out.

Chien-Ming Wang is back traveling with the team but his future as a Yankee remains uncertain.

Lou Gehrig loved his records. Why can't Derek Jeter?

Derek Jeter tied Lou Gehrig's team hits record on Wednesday. What does that mean, exactly?

SWB, with a 3 run outburst in the second inning, and a solid outing by Romulo Sanchez, drew frist blood in the first round of the International League playoffs with a 3-0 win over the Gwinnett Braves. The Yankees scored all the runs they would need in the second on a bases loaded single by Colin Curtis that scored 2 runs. Chris Stewart drove in the other run with a single. A key play in the inning was an error by Gwinnett's catcher, Alvin Colina, on a sac bunt attempt by John

The Division Series schedules may put Joba Chamberlain back in the bullpen for the first round.

The Yankees are lacking a dependable fourth starter for the playoffs. Should Joba and Hughes switch roles?

As the fireworks start here at PNC Field, the SWB regular season comes to a close on a losing note. The Red Wings scored 3 runs off Amaury Senit in the top of the 9th and held on to defeat SWB 7-5. That's it from Scranton. See you at the playoffs!

In the top of the eighth. He set them down 1-2-3.

It is the bottom of the SEVENTH!

I meant to say that Russo's homer tied it at 4-4. The Yankees added another run in the 7th when Freddy Guzman scored all the way from first on a wild pitch and the pitcher failed to cover home. It is now SWB 5, Red Wings 4.

A two run shot to left center and we are tied at 2 in the 7th!

In the top of the fifth Austin Jackson was taken out of the game. He had 2 singles on the day and I have no explainaton for the substitution. Meanwhile, Rochester re-takes the lead in the frame on a Dustin Martin two run homer.

And I don't mean Trenton! Chris Stewart started the inning by getting hit by a pitch. Then with two outs, Austin Jackson singled and John Rodriguez doubled both runners home. The score is tied at 2.

A walk to Justin Huber, a double by Danny Valencia, groundout by Brock Peterson, and a double by Matt Macri and Rochester has the early lead, 2-0.

I listed Romulo Sanchez as the starting pitcher, but it is actually Cory Arbiso. The rest of the lineup looks like this: Kevin Russo, 2B Freddy Guzman, LF Austin Jackson, CF John Rodriguez, DH Cody Ransom, 3B Colin Curtis, RF Eric Duncan, 1B Reegie Corona, SS Chris Stewart, C

Well, here we are at the end of the third exciting season with the SWB Yankees. And for the third straight season, the team has made it to the playoffs. This season has had it's high and low points, but despite the problems with drainage and scheduling, minor league baseball here in Scranton remains one of the best entertainment bargains around. With plans being made to replace the field and make enhancements to the park for fan enjoyment, the 2010 season should be even bette

Joba is pitching like an injured athlete. The Yankees should shut him down.

Did Derek Jeter and Johnny Damon swapping spots in the order make a significant difference in the Yankees offense?

The Yankees have announced their first four players going to Arizona this fall. Could Phil Hughes be next?
