Go Phillies!! Wait until Pedro hits the mound. He'll show Finkelstein the way

But I say Yanks in 6.

Phillies just wasted a golden opportunity. Can't assume that they're gonna load the bases too many more times against C.C. tonight.

well i say Phillies in 6

Pedro will be a beast against the Yankees

I don't think one game will convince the average MLB fan but you never know. Trust me: Chase Utley is THE BEST PLAYER ON THE PHILLIES.

Joe Girardi is shuffling the lineup, hoping that Molina can "call" a good game for Burnett. Also Swisher is being benched in right for Junior Hairston. Not sure it's a good time to play micro-percentages in the World Series, Joe.

And a couple things on C. Lee:

-- Yanks said they were going to dictate the pace of the game, e.g. stall and/or upset Lee's brisk rhythm on the mound. Didn't look like they were stepping out of the box a lot or anything. Lee was zipping along like usual.

-- Bill James said that one of the ways you can pinpoint a good southpaw is his grace on the mound (and a good fastball). Look at Lee's motion, so fluid and efficient.

i put down 50 for the yanks to win today!!

please win!!

Get paid!

Burnett came through with the game of his LIFE. Pedro was servicable but didn't get any run support for the second straight game.

Wacky umpiring continued, along with three punchouts from A-Rod and four from the supposedly awesome Ryan Howard. Still waiting for B. Lidge to appear.

FYI Mo Rivera turns forty next month. What a ballplayer.

GODZILLLLLLLLLLLLA!! HA!

The Rain nearly ruined it. wow, after that fuck up with Posada and Pettitte I didn't think Yanks had a chance with Hamels hurling. Whatta game!

Saburo · « **Reply #1233 on:** November 02, 2009, 09:03:08 AM »

With both Matsui AND Damon having decent postseasons, I wonder which one of them will be favored in the upcoming free agent sweepstakes. Probably Damon for the short term but who knows.

kuro808 · « **Reply #1234 on:** November 02, 2009, 09:14:31 AM »

well I think Damon will probably stay with the Yankees unless they find a better player than him, Matsui might end up somewhere else where it might fit their lineup idk IMO

daigong · « **Reply #1235 on:** November 03, 2009, 12:36:56 AM »

simply genius pplay....I'm thinking they'd pick up Damon. One more win for the Yanks!

Johnny Damon 神奇的盜壘

OHHHH Lidge.

"Oops" just doesn't quite cut it.

Mucca · « **Reply #1237 on:** November 03, 2009, 01:43:37 AM »

^That sorta reminds me of how Amazon was taking pre-orders for a book about the New England Patriots' perfect 19-0 season before they played (and lost) to the Giants in the Super Bowl a few years back.

Wonder how Jimmy Rollins is feeling about his prediction of (paraphrased) "we'll win in five games...six if we're nice to the Yankees" now?

daigong · « **Reply #1238 on:** November 03, 2009, 01:45:41 AM »

lol they weren't even close. That's about as oops as Chan Ho Park's facial hair!!!

Saburo · « **Reply #1239 on:** November 03, 2009, 05:11:57 AM »

Anyone still watching Game Five? Hopefully my "prediction" goes kaput very soon...

Ryan Madson coming in with a three-run lead instead of B. Lidge.
