I'm watching these terrible "high"-lights of that 1995 Game 5 A.L. Division Series on MLB Network right now...

O.k., you're positive the Metropolitans were still on Channel 9 in 1998? For some reason or another I remember seeing their games on Channel 11 that season. But I suppose they still were on Channel 9 for one more season. Not that anyone (other than Kev James and the rest of their fans) really noticed. Lol...

I believe that's what internet sources say.

The 1995 ALDS was against Seattle, right? I remember the series against Seattle. The Yanks lost to them that year & Tino Martinez was on Seattle. Then the next year, we beat Seattle when Tino was on our team. I miss that guy & many others on the team back then (like Brosius, O'Neill, Williams, etc). Even though I'm a Mets fan, I love the Yanks as long as they don't play each other. But I'm fed up with the Mets' management & owners.

i miss the yanks on ch11 why in the world they put the stupid mets on there is beyond me

@retroguy1976

Well, I'm a fan of both but of course like the Mets more, though I'll be the first to admit they currently suck. They switched the Yanks & the Mets. I remember the Yanks used to be on 11 (WPIX) while the Mets were on 9 (WWOR). Then the Mets got 11 (& have been on it to this day) while the Yanks got 9. Then came the YES network & they showed most of the Yanks games, though 9 still showed them about twice a week as of last season.

I miss the WB 11 & Fox 5 days.

@BartmanMC

Well channel 5 is still Fox 5, I liked channel 11 when it was just known as WPIX. I loved the Shocktober movies they showed. They would be on this month if the channel would have kept Shocktober going.

@BrooklynEagle I know this was from 8 months ago, but to answer your question......Yes the Mets did air a handful of their games on Channel 9 in 1998 (by that time though, the VAST majority of them were on Sportschannel/Fox Sports Net)......1998 was the last season the Mets ever aired games on channel 9, by 1999 they aired most weekend games on WPIX Channel 11

@Hal20062b

No. WWOR-TV started broadcasting Yankee games on "free TV", in 2005. WCBS 2 was still calling Yankee games in 2004. The YES Network has been producing the games on "free TV", since 2002.

[Hal20062b]

@carlinrulez666 But it did move to WWOR-TV in 2004, right?

[carlinrulez666]

@Hal20062b

In that case, WCBS started broadcasting Yankee games in 2002.

[Hal20062b]

@carlinrulez666 The TV Station

[carlinrulez666]

@Hal20062b

Are you talking about the radio or tv station?

[Hal20062b]

@carlinrulez666 Oh, because I thought they moved to WCBS in 2000.

@TheMrOct

If you want to get mad, get mad at the Yankees for not hiring Don Mattingly to be the manager.

He deserves to have his number retired, and I forgot to mention he has the highest fielding percentage of all time (.996), hit over .400 in his only 5 playoff games including 10 hits and 6 RBI's. Not to mention, he would give 110% every game, even if he was injured. He is one of those players that would give his heart and soul on the field.

A-Rod won't get his # retired for using PEDs.
