New York Born...

Interesting article at ESPN about the NY-born baseball teams (Yankees, Mets, Giants, and Dodgers) - there's an outside chance, for the first time in baseball history, that the four teams originally born in New York could be in the same postseason this year (with the Giants having the longest shot at it).

Other permutations of at least 3 of them in the same postseason have occurred, the most recent being 2000 with the Giants, Mets and Yankees (the Giants losing to the Mets in the NLDS).

Check out the article here.

Its like New York is the Garden of Eden for baseball and it produced Adam (The Yankees) and Adam had two sons, The Giants and The Dodgers. And the two sons left the Garden of Eden and moved to the west coast and one became very good and pleased God greatly, The San Francisco Giants, and the other became the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Okay, that was a bit of a stretch... but then I've been on vacation. ;)
