It reminds us all what happens in the first few games doesn't really mean much.
As has been said, what really counts is the final game.

The pen's been strong this year - don't judge by last night. And at the end there's Mo, whereas Lidge has been a blown save looking for a place to happen all season.

You mean the Yank's pen? A season era close to 4 ain't gonna cut it against the Phillies. I know that's not bad nowadays, but it's teh suck when you're putting it up against the World Champions.
If the Yanks starters don't go deep, they are in huge trouble. The Phillies will absolutely shell their bullpen just like they did last night.
There used to be a day when a bullpen's era was supposed to be around 2. It gave a team a chance to do well.
I promise you, a 3.79 era bullpen ain't gonna get it in the Series. (and that works for both sides.)
I sure hope the Yanks have what it takes to make this exciting tonight.
One game does not a Series make, but I'm not making any bets on the Yanks after they didn't show up last night.
What's scarier is that they threw the kitchen sink at the Phils and came up empty.
At this point, I'd honestly be surprised if it didn't end up the Phillies in 4.
I sincerely hope it goes seven games because I hate for baseball to end.

I guess we can put this fear to rest.

Now to move forward to conquer the "Phillies in 5" one next.

Decided to check out the Post for kicks.

AJ pitched a decent game today. I think he could've done just a bit better but I'm not gonna knock the man. He did his thing.

That call on first though was a close call so I really wouldn't consider it bad officiating. From where the ump was standing he couldn't see the hop.















I WISH HE WOULD'VE THOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He made up for it the very next inning by missing the call on Utley at first, so I consider it even.

Same deal there....too close to call in real time.

Good win for the Yankees tonight. AJ pitched good, a couple nice HRs and the bullpen of Mo to close it out. Looks like Joe has completely lost any trust from the bullpen in a close game.

I think that's going to end up being the key in the series...for either the Phils or the Yanks. When through, I think it was 3 1/3, and Burnett was close to 60 pitches I liked the Phillies chances, but he did a nice job of settling down and working some quicker innings.

AL also did not have his usual blow up inning in the 5th or 6th. That was the key to the game.
