Interview room schedule
If you’re following along on MLB.com, here’s the interview room schedule for the Yanks:

4:15 p.m.: Andy Pettitte
Not sure if (or when) Joe Torre is doing his thing. He’s talking to the beat writers at 4 p.m.

On a personal note, today was the first day I really had the chance to listen to the new Bruce Springsteen record. Magic is not quite as guitar-driven as I hoped but there are four tremendous songs: Devil’s Arcade, Radio Nowhere, Girls In Their Summer Clothes and Living In The Future.
I’m sure I’ll figure out a few more I like. That’s usually how it works. Suffice it to say, I’m eager to see some shows in person when I get a chance.
There are worse things in life than sitting in the front row of the press box on a sunny day before a big game listening to new music you really like. I think of better things, trust me. But there have been worse days.





Pete, I got my Magic today! I gave it first, precursory, listen, without reading the lyrics. On first listen, I just liked the overall feel of the album (CD). I can’t wait to get a chance to really delve. With Bruce, eventually you have to read the lyrics.
I’m watching the Phillies game and there is some speculation by the Phillies media that one of the Rockies pitchers was doing something illegal. Before he came in the game he “drank” out of a cup of water tossed some down his neck, than put some on the front of his jersey and tapped it there. Looked quite strange. They also said that he went to the wet spot on his jersey throughout the inning.
Video is up and running on mlb.com.
Peter…check out You’ll be comin down. Listen to it twice and it’ll get stuck in your head. Awesome cd overall.
Pete, I am loving the album, good thing you reminded us it was released the other day. It isn’t quite as good as The Rising was, imho, but that was one of my favorite albums of all times. Honestly, with the state of music today, anything Bruce puts out is going to be better than most of the junk put out nowadays.
On the Yankees front, I am hoping all is well with Doug, we need the glove tonight with Wanger on the mound.
Something about Corpas rubbing dirt in the wet spot.
I don’t care what the experts say about Holliday, Rollins is the NL MVP. He called it in the spring that they would win the east, and he willed it to happen. 3 rbi’s today in 2 at-bats.
Pete thanks for posting the schedule can you do this on a daily basis for those of us following along. Agree on the Bruce record for me after Gypsy Biker is where it is at in terms of really good stuff
Also, I hung around in the dugout yesterday with Brian Cashman. He told a funny story about one year when the Yankees clinched a division series in Texas. They used cheap champagne and the whole team broke out in huge red blotches.
from nyt blog. LOL
Jennifer – Where on MLB.COM?
I think it was Gatorade that Corpas “spilled” on his jersey and then later he rubbed his hand on the exact spot where the Gatorade was.
Pete – check out this week’s NY Times Music podcast. Last couple of minutes are an “interview” with Bruce. It’s hilarious; he talks on and on about the music and the interviewer (A.O. Scott) spends most of the time saying “mmhmm.” Great stuff from the Boss.
go to yankees.com and the link is right on the front page where it says postseason conferenfes
Thank you Gayle!
Great album indeed!
I’ve been listening quite a bit over the past few days. My 3 year old daughter really likes Livin in the Future!
wow, they have Derek Jeter, and no questions, surprising. I guess they have realized he won’t answer the questions about what A-Rod needs to do this postseason.
Go to yankees.com, you’ll see it right on the front page. YOu just missed DJ but there weren’t many questions for him.
Anyone know what the ratings were for last nights Sox game? I hope they tanked espically since they gave them prime time games!!
a camera man rolled over his ankle according to WFAN and they think he will be ok. I want that camera mans name and number
Song titles go in quotes, album titles are italized.

Gayle if he comes to Yankee Stadium we should hang him upside down by his toes on the bat.
I think that Kenny Rogers should have a word with THAT cameraman!!
The cameraman’s name is Kenny Rogers. They’ve id’ed him by the tattoo on his palm.
radio nowhere was on the radio this morning when getting ready for work and it’s been in my head since. i can’t stand that song…
Is the cameraman a Giambi fan? I can’t think of any other reason he’d target Mient… It’s not like he looks like A-rod or anything.
But I’m sure it was just an “accident.”
So, can we have the game post yet? =D
Stupid *ss mlb missed the begining of Andy’s interview.
I agree with some others that Magic doesn’t quite approach The Rising. It doesn’t have the same combination of soul, heartache, and hope, but I’m not sure any other recording ever could.
But Magic is still a beautiful, powerful record. Just the like the ’99 Yanks were a great championship team, but they weren’t the ’98 team. Team like that comes once in a lifetime.
“Last to Die” and “Long Walk Home” are powerful. From set lists of rehearsals and the Hartford show, those two songs form the final 2/3rds of a trio that starts with “The Rising.” Wow.
Going to see him here in Philly on Saturday. Can’t hardly wait.
Go Yanks!
Are there any other player interviews after Andy? Is there a schedule somewhere that I am missing or just from what Pete posted?
Thanks in advance
Can we stop talking about Andy’s elbow!! Geez!!
Don’t they archive the interviews? They do for the NBA postseason.
Is Bruce a Yanks fan?
yes they are archived if you go to mlb.com and then go to audio/video you will see a listing of it
Thanks, Gayle. By the time it loads up, the interviews are done!
“Terry’s Song”, song #12 is great too…for totally different reasons…”Last To Die” and “I’ll Work For Yoru Love” are strong.
“Radio Nowhere” live is an instant classic- and great show opener
Bruce has been to many Yankee games throughout the past 20 years or so. He even went into the clubhouse a few years ago and gave Bernie Williams a signed guitar.
He once did an interview the morning after the 1998 World Series. According to the interviewer Bruce wouldn’t stop talking about the Yankees.
Wow, top of the 4th and the manager’s going to bring in a pinch hitter for the pitcher’s spot with men in scoring position.
WOW he is taking out his pitcher!! Now this game is taking forever!! What happens if it runs past 6:30?
off topic, but it’s always funny seeing links like this on espn
If the Twins decide to trade ace Johan Santana, they should talk to the Dodgers, Angels, Mets and any other interested team. Buster Olney
great piece of advice. if the twins decide to trade a player, they should talk to any interested teams.
i wonder if he’s also an expert in nameiology.
Now, Manuel is changing his pitcher.
“What happens if it runs past 6:30?”
Yanks game should start on TNT in that case.
Pete, add Long Walk Home & You’ll Be Coming Down to your list. Like you, I was expecting more of a guitar driven CD. But now that I’m over that fact I really dig it.
will: I was in class and there were several people (not just one) who used symbology in a serious manner.
Mind you, I am in an English masters program. At NYU. a fairly competative program.
Oops. Wrong move, Charlie. Grand Slam.
Mel, Just thought the same thing. How do you pull your starter who while isn’t spot on, isn’t doing horribly. Talk about being second guessed.
you would think that enough people have seen that movie to know better. especially college kids. you sort of just have to laugh.
Hey Pete. As far as Magic is concerned, i think every song is good except for Gypsy Biker and Magic. Just give it a few more listens. Also I’m not sure if you know, but there is an extra track (#12 Terry’s song) that is not listed on the back of the cd. It was written for Terry Maovern, a friend and personal assistant of bruce. http://www.brucespringsteen.ne.....overn.html
But i Must say, “Girls In Their Summer Clothes” is probably the best on the album
Here’s to the Yankees rocking Cleveland the same as Colorado is ringing Philly’s bell!
