Obviously every New York team is going to try to co-opt and connect to the buzz of the Knicks. And on Tuesday night, for the Yankees, that was having Jalen Brunson and the great-nephew of Elston Howard, Josh Hart, deliver first pitches. Brunson and Hart represent pillars of the best starting five the Knicks have had since the early 1970s at a time when the Yankees have what I believe is a chance at their best starting five since 2002 when Roger Clemens, Orlando Hernandez, Mike Mussina, Andy Pettitte and David Wells all excelled — with a nice sixth-man run by Ted Lilly.
