Although my heart belongs to the New York Mets, I'm quite happy to also root for the Yankees as long as they're not playing against the Mets. So last night's game, which I caught starting in the 7th inning, was quite a thrill.
Derek Jeter has been quoted as saying "I believe we've got some ghosts in this Stadium that help us out. There's some magic in this place." Maybe he's right and maybe he's not. Maybe all it takes is believing that when the s**t hits the fan, you will be able to pull something out of the hat and turn a bad game around. Ultimately it doesn't matter if it's the ghost of Babe Ruth or not that helps you win the game. The Red Sox have gone down to defeat again and their World Series drought - whether it's the "curse of the Bambino" or not - continues another year. 
I hope the Yanks have enough time to rest up before game 1 against the Marlins. My call: Yankees in 6.
