The statistics line CC Sabathia 9210 Night

I think it's safe to say that the New York Yankees don't miss the old Yankee Stadium. They have the best home record in the American League and have won 16 straight in "new" Yankee Stadium. It helps when you have a big gun like CC Sabathia on the mound. Those wins just seem to pile up.

Sabathia dominated the A's last night. He allowed just one hit over 8 innings, struck out 5 and needed just 95 pitches to notch his league-leading 19th victory of the season. He also eclipsed 200 innings pitched for the fourth straight season. He's a lock to get to 20 wins this season -- something he has yet to do over his brilliant career. He's had 19 twice before.

Yankee Stadiums Sensory Overload

Whats more appalling, now that Im inured to YES, is how garish the new stadium is.

Upon visiting it last year in its inaugural season, what grabbed my attention, and disgust, was how the edifice resembled an Albert Speer construction, cold and steely, with huge banners of past and present Yankees stars instead of swastikas.
