Though the Bombers are not performing to their fan’s hopes and expectations in the final season at the legendary House that Ruth built … they are hanging on and have, once again, spoiled the momentum of their arch rival up north in that little city of Boston .. and witnessing it first hand was truly amazing .. again.

The date is Sunday July 6th, 2008; the final night of a 4 day set in the Bronx with the Sux taking 2 of the first 3. There was a looming fear of imminent rain lurking above throughout the entire night the forces of nature held up and the game was played without interruption.

The Greatest Moment of the game came with 2 outs and the go ahead runner on 3rd base .. the pitch-hitting, towel-headed Manny Ramirez faced the Greatest Closer of All-Time, Mariano Rivera. In 3 pitches, and Mo says “no”! … as Ramirez just stares at the called strike 3. Check all 3 (poorly documented) pitches for yourself.
