10 years ago this week (July 29 – July 31, 2005) the Yankees were playing a three-game series against the Angels. It was a weekend series and the Yankees dropped the first game 4-1. At that time, the Angels were a thorn in the Yankees’ side. It seemed like the Yankees could never beat them, and after the result of the first game of the series, it looked like it would be more of the same.
Saturday afternoon’s game featured a matchup between Paul Byrd and Shawn Chacon. Now, I don’t remember the broadcast word for word, but I’m pretty sure Michael Kay probably mentioned that Byrd resembles Kelsey Grammer at least 15 times.
