Its not just good enough for the Yankees to go out and buy up every good player that money could buy, now thay are demanding that the Commissioner's office give them a forfeit win over the Tanpa Bay Devil Ray's because they didn'y show up on time to start a double header monday morning!
First off the team was with there families riding out Hurricane Frances!
Secondly, The nearest airports to them were closed due to the hurricane!
thirdly, roads leading to open airports WERE CLOSED due to flooding or erosion!
The team ended up on a plane around 3pm est, and played only one game of the double header
How can a team be heartless like that, I know thats probably not the position of the players, but when you get comments like
"They had plenty of time to get out of Flordia friday or early saturday"
"The rules state that if one team is ready to play and the other isn't, a forfeit should be awarded"
It was a natural disaster!
