17 marks the record

Besides the Yankees's bats waking up, the Yankees's defense has been perfect. The Yankees are on the verge of setting a new record for most games without an error. The Yankees defense has been awsome and they have been doing everything right. This is the best Yankee defense i have ever seen since the day i became a Yankee fan. Mark Texiera has surely done nothing but do great at first. Robinson Cano has been goo as well as Jeter, and A-Rod pulled off this gun out from a ball that started off fair and then bounced out of bounds, which A-Rod caught in the air and got the runner out at first.
The Yankees outfield has been great as well and i wonder why? Maybe its because none of the players in the outfield has their starting role guaranteed as of yet. I see a more fast, young, and more talented outfield for the Yankees right now and if you ask me, the Yankees have 1 of the best outfield defenses in the MLB. This all comes to a conclusion that the Yankees are trying hard and doing everything right to get wins.
The Yankees have not committed an error since Ramiro Pena booted a ground ball while playing shortstop on May 13 in Toronto. Since then, New York has handled 617 total chances in 156 1/3 innings of play, recording 469 putouts and completing 148 assists with 12 double plays. The Yankees are 13-4 during the 17-game errorless streak. Stats like these is the reason why i think the Yankees will bring a championship to New York. Because as well as say, Defense wins championships and the Yankees have defense and offense.
