Yankees 3B Aaron Boone, acquired from Cincinnati and later signed to a contract, injured his knee playing basketball and could be out for the season. Since his heroic homer against the Boston Red Sox capped an improbable series victory, Boone has had nothing but bad play and bad luck. Now he's become the latest player to be injured during a pickup game of another sport.
Every move that doesn't pan out for the Yankees now makes me value the 1996-2000 run all the more. The Yanks were a starless team that routinely played out of their heads. I could see the work that went into each win. Now I can tell when it's missing.
