Nightmare in Flushing Series: A-Rod and Swish come back to life

The Yankees have a 2-1 lead and their ace C.C Sabathia taking the hill for game 4...ruh roh!



Andy Pettitte wasn't exactly on his "A" game, but ARod and Nick Swisher finally showed up in the series with a pair of bombs to take down the Philthies 8-5 in game 3 of a rain-soaked affair...



After an hour and 20 minute rain delay complete with seeing Tim McCarver dancing in the booth way more times than necessary, the Bombers found themselves in a 3-0 hole going into the top of the 4th inning...



Que this year's version of Captain Clutch....A-Rod delivered a 2-run shot off the right field camera to pace the Yanks to a big win...




As expected by this blogger, the man to the right didn't step up to the occasion and delivered a lousy preformance...
The man who many girls find the apple of their eye left several hanging breaking balls over the plate in this one, including a pitch to Andy Pettitte that ended up tying the game up at 3....Do you Philly fanswant to blame this start on his wife in labor too...Face it, this man didn;t show up in 2009...bottom line
Jayson Werth did show up for this game, however, hitting two homers and his second one nearly hit the "Hit it Here" Sign that would have won a Philthy fan a million bones...
Andy wasn't on top of his game, but pitched well enough to keep his boys in the game...Tonight, the Phils send Joe Blanton to the hill against C.C Sabathia, who i'm convinced doesn't neet rest to go out there and at the very least go out there an pick up a quality start...
The fans will be nothing short of electric tonight, but they know full well that if they can't pull off a W tonight that this series is damn close to over...
