The New York Yankees' 2007 season was the Yankees' 105th in New York and their 107th overall dating back to their origins in Baltimore. The season started with the Yankees trying to win the AL East championship, a title they had won every season since after the 1997 season, but ultimately they came in second place to the Boston Red Sox. The Yankees instead won the American League wild card, beating out their two main competitors, the Seattle Mariners and the Detroit Tigers. They have not missed the playoffs since the 1994 strike-shortened season.

May

By early May, Mike Mussina and Chien-Ming Wang joined Andy Pettitte with newcomers Darrell Rasner and Matt DeSalvo filling in the remaining two positions in the rotation. Alex Rodriguez's remarkable April had come to an end, but the bats kept up their pace and, with the bullpen getting some needed rest, the Yankees began May 7-2. However, at the end of the month, the Yankees were tied for last place with the Devil Rays and were 22-29, 13½ games behind the Red Sox in the AL East.

June

The Yankees began June with a strong 8-2 start. They opened with a series victory over the Red Sox in Boston, including a game-winning home run by Alex Rodriguez off closer Jonathan Papelbon in the final game of the set with Boston. They were struck by injuries again that weekend, as Doug Mientkiewicz was injured in a collision at first with Mike Lowell and Roger Clemens's first start was delayed by a groin injury. Nonetheless, the Yankees took 3 of 4 from the White Sox heading into an interleague series with the Pirates. Roger Clemens made his season debut on June 9 and earned the victory. The Yankees swept the Pirates and took a 9-game winning streak, their longest since May of 2005, into a subway series with the Mets. Roger Clemens pitched strongly in the series opener, but the Yankees were shut out 2-0. The Yankees would rebound and take the next game 11-8. Later that day, the Yankees received news that Kei Igawa would be ready to return to the Major Leagues. On July 1, they were 11 games behind the division-leading Red Sox and 8 games behind the Wild Card-leading Tigers.

July

The Yankees began the first week of July strongly. They lost the final game of a series with Oakland before taking 3 out of 4 from the Minnesota Twins and 2 of 3 from the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. Alex Rodriguez was injured during the series with Minnesota, suffering a strained left hamstring. He missed one game before returning to action that weekend against the Angels. After winning the weekend series with the Angels, the Yankees went into the break with a 42-43 record and a 10 game deficit in the division behind the Boston Red Sox. This is the first time since 1995 that the New York Yankees were under .500 before the All Star Break.^[7] After the break, the Yankees took three out of four games from the Toronto Blue Jays and the last place Tampa Bay Devil Rays, twice.

August

The beginning of August saw the Yankees, along with all of Major League Baseball, eagerly awaiting home-run number 500 from Alex Rodriguez. During the home-run milestone chase George Steinbrenner's health once again came into question when the New York Post and the New York Daily News each reported that Steinbrenner, during a recent interview, appeared to be suffering from dementia.

On August 4, 2007 during the first inning Alex Rodriguez hit his 500th career home run. Rodriguez became the youngest player ever to do so at 32 years, 8 days. On August 6, 2007 the Yankees cut relief pitcher Mike Myers and brought up Jim Brower. They had just completed a season sweep of the Cleveland Indians, winning all 6 games they played against them in 2007. This was a good start to the Yankees' upcoming tough schedule, where they played 17 games out of a 20 game span against playoff contenders. This included 8 games against the Detroit Tigers (4 at home, 4 at Detroit), 3 games against the Cleveland Indians, 3 games against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim , and 3 games against the Boston Red Sox. is the 216th day of the year (217th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...

August also saw rookie Phil Hughes rejoin the starting rotation as well as the much anticipated debut of Joba Chamberlain, a future starter who is giving the Yankees' bullpen some much needed help during the pennant race (an 0.38 ERA in 23.2 innings as of Sept. 28).

However, in the midst of all this joy, the Yankees organization dealt with the loss of former Yankees shortstop Phil Rizzuto. He passed away on August 13, just months shy of his 90th birthday. The Yankees wore his number 10 on their left sleeves for the remainder of the season. Philip Francis Rizzuto (September 25, 1917 – August 13, 2007), nicknamed The Scooter, was an American shortstop in Major League Baseball who spent his entire career from 1941 to 1956 with the New York Yankees. ...

Shortly after Phil Rizzuto's death, a squirrel started to appear on the right field foul pole. No one knows where the squirrel suddenly came from. The squirrel is nicknamed "Scooter the squirrel" in many Yankees blog websites, since Phil Rizzuto's nickname was Scooter.

August ended on a high note for the Yankees, as they swept Boston at Yankee Stadium after dropping to eight games back in AL East standings. Coupled with losses by the Seattle Mariners, the Yankees' wins put them on top of the AL Wild Card race.

September

The Yankees' first game of September showcased rookie pitcher Ian Kennedy in his first career Major League start. Kennedy had replaced veteran Mike Mussina after Mussina had struggled in his previous three starts. Over seven innings pitched, Kennedy was charged with three runs, only one of which was earned, and the Yankees' offense was led by Alex Rodriguez's 45th home run of the season on the way to a 9-6 victory over the Tampa Bay Devil Rays. The game against the Boston Red Sox on September 14 was 4 hours and 43 minutes, 2 minutes short of a nine inning game record, which is held by the Yankees and Red Sox. [1] While the Yankees lost the American League East title to the Boston Red Sox on 9/27/07, the Yankees as of 9/28/07 have clinched the wild card berth and appeared in the post season for a 13th straight year. They faced the AL Central Champions, the Cleveland Indians, in the ALDS, losing the series three games to one. For the British academic, lawyer and bioethicist, see Sir Ian Kennedy. ...

End of an Era

On October 14, 2007, George Steinbrenner relenquished control of the Yankees to his two sons, Hank and Hal Steinbrenner. The brothers will take on control not only of the Yankees but also the YES Network and the construction of the new Yankee Stadium. “I’ll pay more attention to the baseball part,” Hank Steinbrenner said. “The stadium, that’s more Hal. But basically everything will be decided jointly.” Technically, Steinbrenner is not completely gone. He has given himself the position of Chairman-like position on the team. “George has taken on a role like the chairman of a major corporation,” team president Randy Levine told the Post. “He’s been saying for years he’s wanted to get his sons involved in the family business. Both of them have stepped up and are taking on the day-to-day duties of what’s required to run the Yankees.” ~Sayeed, October 14, 2007 (Quotes have been taken from NY Post)
