Every game seems like a party these days.
The much-maligned bullpen has decided to shave their heads. Bruney showed up for a 1-2-3 8th looking like he was headed to boot camp. Veras, Coke, and Aceves also have joined the platoon, and Johnny A is being recruited aggressively. Let's see if General Mariano enlists, or is "drafted" in his sleep.
Burnett has made a name for himself by mashing whipped cream in his Yankee teammates' faces during interviews after their walk-off hits.
And even Jeter has been jocular. The old Captain was seen busting Swisher's chops for his haircut before the game (pictured above), congratulating Pena with a slap on the chest for catching a routine pop fly (shown in the Bruney clip above), and then, after chasing a foul pop into the crowd, playfully smacking a small child's hat downward over his eyes. Here's the clip. He also smoked a bases-loaded, bases-clearing double that broke the game open Jeter style, kicking off the festivities, and sealing another game in what is becoming a memorable streak and a awesome exposition of Yankee dominance.
