MOTHER NATURE'S SON

Submitted by ub on

The sunshine is nowhere to be found today in The Big Apple as The New York Yankees play their final game of the season at home in The Bronx and team captain Derek Jeter bids his farewell to baseball fans near the home that Ruth built.

Following a season-long farewell tour around the major league parks, New York Yankees may get to play one last home game with No. 2 as their shortstop. Derek Jeter may be in for a sendoff, which has not been seen in The Bronx since NY Yankee great and #7 Mickey Mantle retired.

Weather forecasters are suggesting a possible washout, while ticket scalpers have been selling some seats for hundreds of dollars each.
