Against the Rangers on June 15, all 4 Yankee infielders (Teixeira, Cano, Pena, Nunez) hit home runs. It's only the second time in franchise history that this has happened -- the other time being in 1939! Texas Rangers vs. New York Yankees - Recap - June 15, 2011 - ESPN
Meanwhile, Cleveland has fallen down and they can't up, giving up a 7 game lead in their division (and the best record in the AL) within about 3 weeks. That best record is now held by my Sox for the time being; whose game today, by the way, was moved from 1 pm to a night game so it wouldn't interfere with the rolling rally for the STANLEY CUP CHAMPION BOSTON BRUINS!!!!

As a native of Youngstown, Ohio (exactly half way between Cleveland and Pittsburgh on the Ohio Turnpike) I have been a New York Yankees fan first, a Cleveland Indians fan second, and a Pittsburgh Pirates fan third. Thanks to division play it is much easier for me to root for both the Yankees and Indians because they can both win the division.
Last night was a good night because the Yankees and Indians both won
, BUT the dreaded Red Sox won also

Have a good weekend and Father's Day!
