Maybe team members know something YES Network doesn't

TORONTO (AP) --"Derek Jeter poured champagne over Joe Torre's head. Almost half the team doused Mariano Rivera with beer. Bernie Williams flashed a grateful smile."
  • Well, I'll be danged. The AP is smarter than the YES Network. The AP noted someone named Mariano exists, and that "almost half the team doused Mariano Rivera" with beer. I guess team members know who their MVP is once again.
  • Although, AP made the standard mistake of saying Rivera's been sidelined since August 31--sounds bad--when really it's been since Sept. 1--sounds not quite as bad.
  • Did you know Rivera, in spite of his time off with injury, STILL LEADS THE AL IN IP AMONG LATE INNING RELIEVERS, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF JJ PUTZ WHO HAS .1 INNING MORE (as of 10PM 9/20)?

  • Team members always know something the network doesn't.

  • Agreed, but some disconnects/
    discrepancies are bigger than others.
