I think the Phillies get it done and repeat as World Champions in 5. Cliff Lee stymies the Yankee hitters in what should be a pitching clinic vs. C.C. Sabathia in the Bronx, weather permitting in Game 1 this eve.

Yankees in 6 Riveria over Lidge.Utley will make an error to cost em a game,and Rollins will be quite. MVP Marino.#27

CC dominates. ARod is too close to choke now and will have a big series

I wouldn't say 2 runs is more than enough support against this Yankee offense even with Lee pitching like he is. One man on and a badly located pitch and we have a tie ballgame, I hope the Phils can pull this one out thou.

A Rod is already pressing. He looks like a pyscho poppin his gum so as to appear "casual"

this game has been pretty damn good so far. what i was hoping for.

Marte is in...this could get fun bad pretty soon...

If the ump gives Marte that pitch, he'll K every hitter. Fox Track strike zone graphic showed every pitch was a ball outside in Utley's at-bat.

Too bad...he fared much better than I remember from his Sox ( ) days...

Atta boy, Ibanez! I'd like to see Lee finish what he started.

Wow, triple post. Stupid slow as computer.

It was a big hit but double post worthy?? We'll see.....

i'd rather him do it than freaking put lidge in.

so nice you said it thrice

Excuse me but I got caught up watching "Running Man" for a few minutes...Is Joba unavailable?

Same as last year: Phils in 5.


That Cliff Lee can chuck it.

Cliff Lee flashing some leather as well. Dude needs to hit the casino after the game.

Lee's pitching a great game, but there's no need to send him back out in the 9th now. All these pitching changes and Philly rallies are making Lee sit too long between innings. Bring in the BP to close it out, save Lee for a possible Game 4 start.

Hell yes!!!

Cliff Lee

huge win to take game one from c.c. *in* NY.

ESPN's box score was saying Yankee Stadium was only 95% full? Did they mention anything about that on the broadcast?

That should have been an error on A-Pud. That homo needs to keep that ball on the infield.

Beautiful! It's early but Pedro is looking awesome.

I agree, I have to believe they are going to go and change that. All he to do was knock it down, Stairs was running he had all day.
