September is on deck. The New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox are in a familiar place. The Bronx is alive as the two rivals try to settle a playoff race. Start spreading the news:
- "The Red Sox know their history."
- "The Red Sox could seal the deal or open a can of worms that may be hard to shut."
- History lesson.
- "Because of the media and the fans, there's more energy or electricity in the ballpark,.."
- "It’s one of the toughest places to play,” he said. “The crowd’s crazy. You can get a little intimidated, especially as a young player. As an older guy, you get aggravated. It’s a great place to play and great for baseball. I’ve always enjoyed making that trip. It’s the wildest place I have ever played.”--Paul Byrd.
- "Memories aren't why this series matters. The standings are."
- "As the Yankees try to make up ground against the Red Sox, they will get a couple lucky breaks."
