Pitching. The 2004-2007 Yankees could score 10 runs any given night but their Pitching was always mediocre at best. Obviously their offense did dissappear in the 06 playoffs midway through game 2 of the ALDS. But pitching was generally their weakness. Also, I do think Kenny Rogers was cheating, he was way too good out of nowhere after a subpar career. There was some controversy with that substance he was reportedly using.
What I’d give to hear Jon Miller and Joe Morgan call another game on ESPN Sunday Night Baseball. Great childhood memories of those two as well as these Yankees!
I know its not the same but major league baseball 2k5 for ps2 has the full espn presentation including Jon Miller & Joe Morgan....All Star Baseball 1999 Has Jon Sterling & Michael Kay too btw. Thats on N64
Say what you will about Jason Giambi's up and down time in New York, but he always had his teammates' backs no matter what. 4:52 he quickly went to the defense of Arod. LoDuca backed off as soon as Giambi came for him 😆
Giambi was always loved by his teammates in each team he played in his career (Oakland, Yankees, Cleveland, Colorado). Im surprised that he never got a manager job (there were rumors that he was once close to get the Rockies or Cleveland manager roles).
True. Pitching was the Achilles heel back then. If only they had 1 other elite pitcher to put in that rotation with Chien Ming Wang and a couple of solid guys in the middle of that bullpen, there's no doubt they shake up the playoff picture drastically back then.
And to think the Mets had a 4-0 lead and were ready to take 2 of 3 In 2006, Mets lost two games to the Yankees when the Mets were leading by four runs: the game on this video, and one game at Shea that Pedro pitched a gem but the bullpen blew it.
I don't understand why LoDuca got mad at Arod? The bat flip wasn't even a real bat flip. Unless maybe Arod said something but it doesn't look like Arod said much either.
It was a bit of a cocky bat-flip along with the staring, but it was a grand slam to give the Yankees the lead. And Lo Duca was always a hot-head, so everything ticks him off
Yankees, summer baseball, Jon Miller and Joe Morgan. Take me back.
😔 i miss ESPN like this c
When I think of baseball I think of Miller and Morgan
This 06 team should have won a WS. How the fuck did they choke to Detroit!
A-Rod

@@vladiator8120 This team has not had decent pitching for about 15 years
The 2006 Yankees had the scariest lineup ive ever seen.
Was at this game when I was 8. There really was nothing like the old Yankee Stadium. A lifelong memory

Back when the NYY only problem was advancing in the playoffs after (again) winning the Eastern Division.

I was 5 years old watching this in Florida.
Stop fuckin playin prime arod was a fuckin god foh 😤💪🏽
Damn. Willie Randolph and El Duqué as Mets. Is this an alternate universe?
And to think the Mets had a 4-0 lead and were ready to take 2 of 3
In 2006, Mets lost two games to the Yankees when the Mets were leading by four runs: the game on this video, and one game at Shea that Pedro pitched a gem but the bullpen blew it.
I remember that game. Billy Wagner completely melted down in that 9th inning.
Giambi would have squashed Lo Duca
Those were the days.
I know right.
Arod hit another 3 run homer later in the game
I forgot Heath bell pitched for the Mets
97 mph. Cant believe Omar got rid of him after 06
@@hmhm856 cuz he sucked with us as you can see, then goes to padres and becomes good smh
Joe Morgan and Jon miller best duo to call a sports game in anybody sport
I miss old yankee stadium
