Baseball could use another Pedro Martinez or several additional pitchers with this much talent, intelligence and flair, for that matter.

I'VE maintained for a while that the Yankees should get younger and let Hideki Matsui depart this winter, but how do you do that now? This wasn't Reggie Jackson hitting three home runs in one game, but what we saw last night by Matsui was one of the great performances in World Series history.

Andy Pettitte throwing on three days' rest? Even with his postseason record, it seemed like a dicey proposition, especially after A.J. Burnett blew up in Game 5 of the World Series.

He has been here before. On this stage. In this situation. When the Phillies tapped Pedro Martinez to start Game 2 at Yankee Stadium last week, they did so knowing that he would likely make another appearance in Game 6, pitching either to give them their second straight World Series title or to stave off the end of the season.

If you're a Red Sox fan, there is only one reason to watch the World Series: To root against the Yankees.

Knowing he would be pitching with a chance to clinch the World Series championship, A.J. Burnett said he was barely bothered by the idea of going on three days' rest.

MANNY RAMEREZ caught using steroids hardly a Dodger...... As you know, steroids have become a huge dilemma in professional sports.

PEDRO Martinez on the mound against the Yankees tonight in the World Series should be great theater.

HISTORICALLY, the New York Yankees have been the crown jewel of Major League Baseball.

Nick Swisher watches Chase Utley's second homer sail over the right-field wall in the sixth inning.

Pedro Martinez will face the New York Yankees in Game 2 of the World Series tonight, a game that could become another memorable appearance against the Bronx Bombers: Sept.

The Yankees have played more World Series than anyone, making the trip 39 times before.

The Daily News I-Team is still around? I thought Tony Isabella was involved and it just sorta dissolved.

It's been nearly a decade since the Yankees last won a World Series, and six years since they have even played in one.

Andy Pettitte decided to play in the rain Saturday night. Technically, he was running in the rain at Yankee Stadium .

Had Tuesday gone as planned for the red-splashed sellout crowd, it would have been defined by a Rally Monkey.

NEW YORK, Oct. 16 -- Fingers were on the edge of numbness. Unexposed skin was red and angry. Flags whipped in the wind above the familiar white frieze, and a thin, icy mist at times floated down from the sky. But during a frigid Game 1 of the American League Championship Series on Friday night, nothing at Yankee Stadium was quite as cold as the heart of CC Sabathia -- particularly if you were a Los Angeles Angels hitter trying to turn around his piercing fastballs.

With Sabathia shutting down the Angels on four hits over eight dazzling innings, and with the Angels playing an uncharacteristically disjointed game, the Yankees strolled to a 4-1 victory in front of an announced crowd of 49,688 that braved 45-degree game-time temperatures.

If you haven't experienced the wondrous pleasures of Lamebook , which rounds up some of the most embarrassing, stupid, hilarious, and downright lame things people post on Facebook, then you missed this gem Sunday, which reprints a suspect Yankees photo in an ad allegedly targeting Yankees fans: Either someone hacked it, someone submitted a fake ad, ...

Welcome to the best time of the baseball year. There's nothing better than the league championship series.

This postseason there is a New York Yankee baseball team that we can't hate--no matter how hard we try.
