THIS AIN'T GOIN TO GAME 7!!!

I'm pulling out the Messier here. Lock it up!

Fun fact: When a team is up 3-2 in a 7 games series and they play game 6 at home, their record is 12-13.

 

[BRONG]

The split isn't really, why would someone that likes the Yanks pick the 7 over 6 option?I do find it interesting that its only 56% total for the Yanks to win, should be higher than that.Maybe alot of Phils fans out on the innerwebs today.

I thought the Phillies have been getting disrespected all series?

Ok... even so, what does that have to do with anything?

Im just tired of hearing the disrespect angle/whining when its clearly not true.

Yet you're bringing it up out of nowhere.

I know, too funny.

OMG link

Take all the "not true Yankees" off this team and they don't make the playoffs. A bunch of mercenaries.

Among the remaining 13 games, what is the home team record for game 7?

Good news. Vic is also Mr. Drama so I wouldn't be surprised if he's playing a little with the media here.

He should get some leftover halloween fake blood and spinkle in on his batting glove a la the "bloody sock".

Can we just stop the whole "mercenary" thing?... its ridiculous, TIA.

Exactly, these guys are employees and just like anyone else in this thread they go work for the person who pays them the most. I am jumping from my job as soon as I can find someone who will pay me more and the rest of you would to.

Congratulations. This comment now holds the distinction of having the least to do with the original discussion of any posted in the entire thread (and that says A LOT). PS - I love the way everyone keeps trying to stop the conversation by digging it back up!

My post just says how inane your posts are yelling about mercenaries. Who cares.

Great.....then the Phils have a 25% chance of winning this thing. Exactly what I expected.........

"I would think what we want to do is drive up his pitch count, make him work," said Yankees outfielder Eric Hinske, which is exactly the battle plan the Yankees deployed against Pedro in his prime. Joe West is the home plate umpire tonight, so a small strike zone with these two teams hitting will mean tougher duty for the pitchers. (Strikeout, walk and slugging rates with West behind the plate all favor the hitter, compared to average rates.)

Huh, I always thought of West as a big zone guy. Probably only when Mariano pitches.

I've always thought of Cowboy Joe West as a big jowls guy....and a ####

LMAO-pt3 Go Pedro!

He's a no-nonsense ump. I could see him taking offense to all the Yankees whining and stall tactics. May work against them in this one.

A-Rod career post-season OPS is now higher than his regular-season OPS, no small feat considering that the pitching is inevitably tougher.

Also no small feat considering how unclutch he is

That is interesting as I would have expected a little higher win %, but if each game is a 50/50 chance then the yanks have a 75% chance of winning right now. Of course that becomes 50% if the Phillies win tonight.

Call your doctor if either lasts more than 4 hours

 

[belljr]

Bad swing by utley. I can't handle this....

 

[bleachercreacher]

That 3rd strike called on Arod was horrible.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

HUGE half inning here

Utley and Howard coming up

Need to get through here unscathed

Cmon Andy

 

[belljr]

Can't give them 4 outs. Why that pitch was anywhere near the strike zone to matsui is beyond me

 

[whoknew]

Quick hint to Charlie - if Pedro is still in there when Matsui comes up again, pull him.

 

[Tremendous Upside]

Oof

Damon out

That hurts

 

[Eephus]

OofDamon outThat hurts

Hairston, Gardner & Swisher is like the Giants' outfield

I just feel like the Yankees have their dyke before the Pihils burst through, only they can't

 

[flapgreen]

Go Durbin

 

[Darth Cheney]

Think he should have been swinging there.

Congrats Yankees, you were the better team this series....

Am I the only one who knew this would happen?

I think the Phillies are really going to get to Rivera tonight.

 

[cobalt_27]

This #### ain't over

Marte can light a gas can with the best of them. I know he's squared things up recently, but still...he concerns me.

 

[Please See Mine]

that first pitch to utley was a ball to victorino
