11/05: Quick Notes: Girardi Helps Crash Victim, Mo Wants 5 More and Japan Rejoices Over Matsui
Posted by: Patrick
Girardi, a Friend to You and Me: After the Yankees manager left the stadium last night, where do you think he went next? The answer was a pit stop at Cross County Parkway. Girardi stopped to help someone who had been in a car accident. Not only that, but police officers say he stopped at a particularly dangerous stretch or road and ran through traffic that reaches an excess of 80 MPH. Wow. Via Sam Borden.
Five Mo Years?: At the on-field trophy ceremony last night, Mariano Rivera joked that he's ready to pitch five more years. But, it was no joke. The closer told Chad Jennings: "I'm serious. I hope the organization does whatever it takes to bring me back."
Matsui's MVP Big in Japan: Finally, Jay Greenberg of the Post spoke with someone at a Japanese newspaper who said he expected news of Matsui's exploits in last night's game to be on the front page of the paper and to possibly be bigger then when Ichiro won the MVP or collected 262 hits in a season. Godzilla!
