I was looking at the Yankees schedule, and they still have one "spring Training" left. They play two in Japan, and then come home and have a ST game vs. the Tigers, before they head back to tampa.

yeah i saw that yesterday, that has to be pretty weird for the players

middle 1st yankees 2 - 0

 

There's no announcers actually at the game, Reynold, Ravech, and Gammons are announcing from a studio in Bristol. I don't like it... It seems like I'm watching baseball tonight. There's relatively no crowd noise and you can't hear the sounds of the game, the bat hitting the ball, a hard fastball snapping into the catchers mitt, etc. It's odd.
