What an excellent job by Cliff Lee last night. He made the Yankees look like a pee wee team. Props where props are due.

Nice bullpen by the way, Yankees.

Tonight the Yankees get to face the most influential player to ever play at Yankee Stadium, Pedro Martinez....LOL!

Please come through tonight, AJ!

I have an odd feeling that Pedro is going to do well tonight.  Maybe not well enough to win.  But well.  I have a feeling that the Yankees bats are all due for at least a semi cooling, they've been too hot lately.  Getting shut down like they did last night can have trickle down effects.  I say Pedro gets into the 7th inning tonight and gives up 4 or less earned runs.  Just a feeling.

Dear God,

I don't ask for much, but if you could make this a lopsided-as-all-heck 4 or 5 game World Series romp by the Phillies that sends the Yankees home crushed, I swear I'll never ask for another favor again.

Amen

I've got that same feeling. I can see him going at least 6, allowing 3 or 4 runs.

He looked sharp against L.A.

Now...that was a warm day, too.  Pedro doesn't always do well when it's cold.  I do see where game time temps tonight could be 55-60, he lucks out that it won't be wet and cold like last night.

The big question will be this:  Can AJ keep the Phillies under 5 tonight?  Because if he can't, I don't know if they win.  If AJ's breaking stuff looks ridiculous tonight he should be okay.  When "on" his curve could be the best in the bigs.  But you can't leave any breaking stuff hanging against a team with four guys in the line up that hit 30+ jacks.

Should be an interesting game tonight.  Could come down to a throwing error or walks.

Cliff Lee was amazing last night.  Good thing he pitched 9 innings, so hopefully the Yanks will only have to see him one more time even if the series goes to 7 games.

I reallly need a Xanax being down 0-1 with AJ on the bump tonight.  He really needs to step up and throw a good game.  I think the Yankees bats will wake-up somewhat against Pedro, but AJ cannot give up a bunch of runs (especially early in the game).

philles are so good right now, they get two outs without actually getting the two outs.

LOL! Another nice call, huh?  Wink

Anyways, 1-1 heading back to Philly. Both AJ and Pedro pitched really well. The Yankees just got the big HR's tonight that made the difference.

For some odd reason Matsui loves to hit against Pedro.

I get so superstitious about games. After watching last night, and seeing Chase hit those two home runs, I couldn't watch today. Not out of nervousness, but out of the fact that I, for whatever reason, feel my watching has an effect on the game.

Lo and behold, we won. Maybe I'll never watch a Yankees world series again!

That was the best game AJ has pitched since joining the Pinstripes.  I love that guy!  Smiley
