Maybe they should play the rest of their home games at the ballpark over at Coney Island, because their own place suddenly has become a House of Mirrors. The Yankees lose the World Series here. They get shut out in the Division Series opener here. They squander a 5-3 lead late in Game 2 against the Twins ...

Take more pitches. Draw more walks. Hit more grounders. For years, Jimmy Rollins heard the same criticism from people who said he's not a prototypical leadoff hitter. Try dissing J-Roll now.

It's different now. There are people who claim to be members of Red Sox Nation who have no idea that Bucky Dent's middle name is Bleeping.

The argument could be made that Johnny Damon was the most productive leadoff man in the majors this season. At least among men not named Ichiro Suzuki. It was trend that continued in the American League Division Series against Anaheim.
