Hey, Joe Girardi, you just managed the New York Yankees to their 27th World Championship ? What are you gonna do ? New York (CNN) — It was a busy night for New York Yankees Manager Joe Girardi — not only did he lead his team to the World Series championship, but on his way home, [...]
NEW YORK – If the knock against Yankees manager Joe Girardi is that he's been overmanaging his way through his first postseason, well, let's put it this way: At least he's got plenty of help. Girardi has enough computer programs to make stat geeks envious and the best scouting department money can buy. A binder chock-full with matchups and color-coded charts is never more than an arm's reach
PHILADELPHIA – A.J. Burnett started walking briskly off the mound before manager Joe Girardi even got there. The erratic right-hander already was finished — and he knew it. With a chance to pitch the New York Yankees to their first World Series championship in nine years, Burnett was a major bust in Game 5 on Monday night.

PHILADELPHIA – Brian Cashman leaned against the wall just outside manager Joe Girardi's office as the best players money can buy milled about inside a quiet, but quietly confident, clubhouse.

PHILADELPHIA – Alex Rodriguez has one more reason to love the camera. His disputed drive into the right-field corner, originally ruled a double, was changed into a two-run homer when video technology was used to reverse a call for the first time in World Series history.
