The New York Yankees accomplished an achievement Wednesday night that they have not done since 2000 against the New York Mets. What did they do? They became the 2009 World Series champsby defeating the Philadelphia Phillies. They took the series with a 4 and 2 record. The final game 6 was held where it began, at Yankee Stadium. Hideki Matsui was the World Series MVP with 6 Runs Batted In on a two run homerun, a double, and a single. The Yankees won the World Series at the opening of their old stadium in 1923, just as they did this year in their new stadium that opened this season. The recreation of watching Major League Baseball on t.v. or attending games has come to an end. However there are other highly wathed and attended sports underway such as NFL football, NBA basketball, and NHL hockey.While this is the end of one recreational past time for Yankees fans, there is still one more chance to see the Yankees before spring training. Friday at 11 A.M. the Yankees will be on floats in a parade in New York City celebrating their victory with their fans lining the streets. There will be a dozen floats that the team will be riding on. After the parade there will be a ceremony at city hall for the 2009 MLB World Series Champions.
I think you should have a different colored background than white. By doing this, i think the blog will look a lot more interesting and will definitely look more professional. I like your entry itself, you wrote well and it's definitely engaging. overall, i think you need to add more to the blog. Perhaps more entry's, pictures, or side things would be good.
ReplyDeleteLets just say...Im a Phillies fan..
ReplyDeleteIt was a good series though I will admit. Both teams played great. Both teams had their mistakes and it usually cost them the game. Like Lidge giving up 3 runs at the end of the game..I wasn't too happy there. And Ryan Howard could have not been there and the Phillies wouldnt have done any better. The best team won, congrats. We'll see you next year!
Congratulations on your team winning the World Series.
ReplyDeleteI'm a Mets fan and am extremely jealous on how you can buy a championship, but my team tried and all they bought was half the I.R. list.
Yeah I am not a Yankees fan, but I did watch the game and it was very cool to see them win, and see how happy and excited they all were. I also saw some of the parade they were in, which was also very cool.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your team winning!!
I do not like the Yankees as a Red Sox fan but I do know what a good baseball team looks like. The Yankees this were very good, and even though its a team of overpaid all-stars they looked the teams of the the late 90's. They played together as a team and they went on a crazy run. Although the last thing I ever want is for the Yankees to win I knew they would this year.
