Cheaters justice for 2018.
Lol your team cheated the same friggin year and have a lawsuit pending against MLB to have Manfred’s emails to the Yankees released.
You are funny.
Enjoy 4 days in October on ESPN right now.
Biggest choke job and Greatest comeback in baseball history.
Lol I love the fact watching 4 days in October how Trump skunked the Yankees before game 7.
Saying the Yankees are the Yankees and George is a winner.
Totally jinxed them.
Is he a Yankee fan or Mets fan? Speaking of jynxs he was behind the plate when Beltran struck out in game 7 of 06.

I definitely prefer the more analytics-focused broadcast on ESPN2. Hopefully, they will all be like that soon.
The ESPN2 broadcast they did for the playoff game last year. It’s for analytical geeks.
Baseball is a regional game. Red Sox-Yankees, Dodgers-Giants, Cardinals-Cubs, and anyone throwing at-Houston are the only type of games that can get any decent national ratings when both teams are good.
Red Sox suck so ESPN is stuck with them for this year but the national TV partners will always want the Sox-Yanks on primetime.

Baseball needs to find a way to market its stars.
No one who isn’t a Yankee or Red Sox fan cares about their games. Yet I’m constantly presented it as a transcendent rivalry.
Its not 2004 anymore the red sox are rebuilding. These games aren't interesting anymore.
Red Sox-Yankees playoff ratings are the highest rated games ever on TBS and destroyed the NL ratings on the same station which included the Cubs and Dodgers.
The Sox suck but Red Sox-Yankees when the Sox don’t suck draws eyeballs.
Yankees-Red Sox Up Big, NLDS Weak, Through Weekend
Yankees-Red Sox ratings have been the highest of the Division Series, with Games 1 and 2 both up substantially from last year's comparable windows.

Who cares? The Mets blow. Go beat a good team in the playoffs and then you can run your mouth.

How many of those eyeballs aren’t Sox or Yankee fans? They both have a massive following. I get that it makes ratings sense. But the idea that the average baseball fan cares about either is a myth.

About what game do you think the average baseball fan would care more?

When I think Yankees - Red Sox, I think of Pedro, Big Papi, Manny, Jeter, Torre, Zimmer, etc. These were big names and stars that we “knew”. We even knew the coaches.
We don’t “know” these guys now.
Just about any other game. Boston is awful the Yankees beat up on them. It's not interesting anymore.

I am. I’m watching the game right now.
I know who their main players are - but I don’t know anything about them beyond their numbers. None of these guys are national stars the way baseball stars used to be. There’s no marketing.
