They were obviously a very good team. They won 2 world series (sweeping both teams) and then they lost the pennent in 7 games.
So what is your point and conclusion? Is it that the umps make them be 29 games over .500 at home or is the water in the visitor's clubhouse tainted? Cause I'm guessing that they were a good team is not it.

palyoffs are random - 3 short series

i just wanted to get some opinions of what people think , i can see it happening 1 or 2 years , but now we are going on 5+yrs of almost 60 wins at home and .500 or sub .500 ball on the road - they are playin the same teams , watch some games in full , watch the strike zone for their pitchers on the road vs home ...see if you notice anything , bobby cox sure did

For one thing, how do you define a home game, because it seems like they usually have the majority of the crowd with them (in most games they play.) Look at that crowd in Washington last night. That's a problem that needs to be dealt with. Spray to rid your space of this vermin.

The theory that the umpires favor the Red Sox at home and screw the Yankees is preposterous. The fact is that the Red Sox have a much better front office who have built a real team as opposed to the yankees who consistently trot out a fantasy league team with no regard to defense or a bullpen outside a closer. And what do you think they will do after Mariano leaves?

Gales I watch far too many baseball games as it is. Anyone that "tracks" that kind of stuff without using the technology found at mlb.coms gamecast is wasting their time. And if there was a trend that favored the Red Sox you can bet your ass that they would have been outed already. It is so stupid that I would seriously advise you not to repeat this in public unless you are solely in the company of other delusional Yankee fans. Most Yankee gibberish is just from spoiled fans who are perhaps the least objective group of fans outside Lexington, KY. The umps are cheating against the Yankees and for the Red Sox? Perhaps the most idiotic yet.

Come on Gales, I detest the Red Sox more than any team on earth but this conspiracy theory is ridiculous.
