Then within a matter of months, in the World Series of 1913, when Bush was still only 20 years old, he rocketed into national prominence by defeating the New York Giants 8-2. members.aol.com /ptl2163/base1   (663 words)

Share and Discover New York Yankees Bio at BlinkBits. The Yankees won the day, driving a stake through the hearts of their rivals' fans when Bucky Dent drove a game-winning home run over the "Green Monster," one of several emotional moments in the team's history that had Red Sox fans wondering if their team was under some kind of a curse. The Yankees are only the third franchise in sports history to draw over 4 million in regular season attendance at their own ballpark (the others being the 1993 Toronto Blue Jays with 4,057,947 and the 1993 Colorado Rockies with 4,483,350). During the early 1900s, the nickname "Yankees" was occasionally applied to the club, as a variant on "Americans", verifiably as early as June 21, 1904, when Patsy Dougherty was traded from Boston to New York, and the Boston Herald's report was headlined "Dougherty as a Yankee". www.blinkbits.com /bits/viewforum/newyorkyankees_Bio?f=3285   (12564 words)
