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.

I guess the strategy concerning A-Rod is not to worry about him, he's gotten pretty good at striking out after building up a lot of post season hype.

He needs to wake the hell up and in a hurry,

Teixeira finally earned his paycheck though.

Jeter was, well, Jeter as usual.

I never really had much of a chance to watch the Phillies before this Series and definitely didn't give them the credit they deserve. They are a solid ball club.

The umps blew some key calls as usual and I'd have to say Philly got the raw end of it on the double play call, although I woulda, coulda, shoulda sent the runnners.

Watched this one on my neighbor's back porch smoking a couple of nice cigars on a really nice night and enjoyed it immensely.

Interesting read.
The Phillies have Mariano figured out.
Will we just add them to the list that thought the same thing or will they indeed be added to the list containing the Diamondbacks? Time will tell.

What did you expect them to say? "He's too good, we can't hit him."

This seems like a story about nothing to me.

I officially know how to get under Carlos' skin.

And nary a reply from you regarding the stats/DH issue...did you see it?

I think Pete hit the nail on the head. Due to the lack of interest of AL affiliated fans watching NL games, and NL affiliated fans watching AL games, credit to the opposition in this series has been pretty low from both sides. I think I can say with some certainty that the best two teams in baseball this year are in the World Series. It's really shaping up to be a great series.

Go Phillies!!
