Few rivalries are comparable to the rivalry of the Yankees and the Red
Sox. But the Boston-New York rivalry transcends baseball. Going back
even to the revolutionary era, New York and Boston have vied for
dominance in the northeast. That competition has seeped into the
sporting world and pervaded it for a century. The Knicks and the
Celtics in the 1970s are a prime example. The Rangers and Bruins of
the same era exemplify it too. The 1986 World Series is unforgettable.
Gotham Sports Media LLC, had added "Live from Mickey Mantle's," a
weekly show that will cover New York sports, to its lineup of radio
shows. Starting with its debut broadcast, February 1, 6:00 pm Eastern
Time, the two-hour show, which will broadcast from the historic
establishment on Central Park South, will feature guests from
throughout the world of New York sports.
The February 22nd doesn’t mean much to most baseball fans,
although the more astute might realize that, give or take a day or two,
it is just about the day pitchers and catchers can report to major
league training camps. But it has a much greater significance than
that in 2008, as, with the exception of teams playing in Hawaii, it is
the beginning of the Division I college baseball season.
Tom Seaver was 22-year old rookie with
the hapless New York Mets in 1967, but a strong first half of the
season had made him the Mets’s lone All-Star selection.
He was
still in single digits on a career that would find him scaling 300
victories, and he spent most of that July 11 evening in the visiting
bullpen at Anaheim Stadium, hardly expecting to see action at all.
Normally, readers of this space will not find much positive content
associated with the players union. In fact, I have gone on record
saying that the notion of the MLBPA being persecuted union fighting
the juggernaut of ownership is ludicrous. In fact, the founders of the
AFL-CIO would be spinning in their graves to think some have compared
the plight of today's millionare ballplayers to those who suffered
during the early days of organized labor.
