The Last Baseball Game of the Season

Congratulations to the New York Yankees, this season’s World Series Champions. The last day of the baseball season is a sad one for everyone. Everyone except the fans whose team just won the ring.

The Bronx Bombers won their 27th World Series title Wednesday night — their first in the $1.5 billion new Yankee Stadium, obviously — by beating the Philadelphia Phillies 7-3 in Game 6 of the 105th World Series.

And if you’re a giant nerd, you might even compare this World Series to the Empire Strikes Back.

In any event, we’ll be back with the gory details later Thursday afternoon, along with our saddest “There’s Always Next Year” yet.
