Pin stripe nation is happy as the New York Yankees defeated the Philadelphia Phillies in the 2009 World Series. It’s just one more championship the Yankees can add to their collection. It was a great baseball series between these two teams and really both teams are winners. The Phillies got to enjoy their ride this year, after winning the 2008 World Series. Now it’s the Yankees turn and the American League gets a chance to bask in all the glory.
The boys of summer start in the early spring and work their way through the dog days of summer. As the temps fall lower and the cooler nights of fall weather sets in; is when we get a chance to see October ball or early November baseball. A long 162 game season is the amount of games it takes to just determine the playoff teams. After our playoff teams are in place, we then get to see more baseball action. A big game was held in July that might have helped the Yankees to win this year’s World Series. The 2009 All Star Game was won by the American League and this gave the NY Yankees home field advantage in the World Series. This was important this year and perhaps the Philly fans could have enjoyed back to back World Series titles; if the National League would have won the All Star Game in July. It’s over now and we have crowned a new champion in baseball. The N.Y. Yankees are your 2009 World Series Champs! Congrats!
