Nightmare in Flushing Series: 27 Outs away from #27!


Another clutch hit from A-Rod and the intelligence of Johnny Damon allowed the Yanks to score three times in the Top of the 9th to beat the Philthies 7-4 and put themselves one out away from a championship….



After a grueling AB, Damon stole second and third simultaneously when he took advantage of a shift and saw that nobody was covering third…This play may have been what seals it for the Yanks in this series...If your Philly, why is your defense set up like that in a crucial game? Finger of shame goes to Brad Lidge for not doing what most little league pitchers manage to do..and that's backing up 3rd base when nobody is there...




With the implosion of Brad Lidge, is it “Lights Out” for Philly?




C.C Sabathia wasn’t his sharpest, but he just proves to me time and time again that he is the definition of a workhorse…




Ryan Howard was TOAST at the plate when he “scored” the tying run in the fourth inning…he never touched and somewhere, Matt Holliday had a good laugh…




The Philthies showed some grit in the 8th when Feliz went to souvenir city off of Joba…but the Yanks are simply a team on a mission…




BIG win for the Yankees! They lose last night and its tied 2-2 with Lee on the Mound….




As much as I want to see the Phils lost in Philthadelphia, Cliff Lee is a beast and I just don’t see the Yanks getting to him tonight…He won’t pitch another CG with 10k’s, but he’ll be…dare I say it…lights out?




This one will go back to the Bronx and the champagne will be put on hold for only a couple more days for the bombers…
