Today in The Journal News
The Mets were somehow the team with more life as they beat the Yankees yesterday.
Sam Borden writes about Fernando Nieve joining the ranks of unknown pitchers who come up big in the Subway Series.
The Mets rebounded quickly from the their Friday debacle. Ernie Palladino has that story.
Brian Bruney has no time for Francisco Rodriguez. K-Rod has no idea who Bruney is. The fight is on. This notebook also has updates on Gary Sheffield and Johnny Damon.
Is Mariano Rivera merely really good instead of dominant?
Finally, check out the touching story Sam Borden did on why Joe Girardi and Michael Kay are so committed to the fight against Alzheimer’s Disease.





a great story about the fight against Alzheimer’s disease – anyone who has a loved one who has been afflicted with this can relate. Thanks Peter.
Some fun I had last night:
Baseball in the year 2000

Beautiful story by Sam – it hits home -thanks
When you wake up in the morning and read Sam Borden’s fine piece of writing (linked above)- it puts things in your daily life in perspective.
Nice job Sam.
That was an excellent story. It really gave me a newfound perspective on Joe Girardi, Michael Kay, and the Alzheimer’s battle. My Dad is afflicted with MS (No picnic), but we can still sit down and watch a game together, and talk.
