Time is simultaneous, an intricately structured jewel that humans insist on viewing one edge at a time.
"You look up one morning and all of a sudden Derek Jeter's a 34-year-old slap hitter who can't play shortstop anymore ..."
Yes, one morning in 2007.
"And then you go to the new Yankee Stadium on a chilly Tuesday night in April to see Andy Pettitte get the win and Mariano Rivera the save against the Oakland A's, and the memories start to color themselves back in a little bit."
I think a day has not gone by in the last eleven years when the Yankee team was not unfavorably compared to the 1998 Yankees.
I don't think anybody remembers Robin Ventura, but they're reminded of Scott Brosius every single day.
Anyway, the rest of the article is basically a stunning realization that a baseball team will benefit from contributions from its starting catcher, starting shortstop, closer, and one of its five starting pitchers.
