Not much noise from Yankee fans today. Go figger..

Its just one game chief! Just one game.

There are 6 more to go. That was one of the best pitched games in World Series history. As a Yankee fan, I tip my cap to Cliff Lee. Well done... but that doesnt mean the series is over by any means. The Yankees will have to face him in game 5... and not until game five!

It was a great pitching duel. CC Sabathia was just a little off, and paid the price with those two pitches to Chase Utley. Lee successfully handcuffed A Rod and Teixiera. It is difficult for a team to win when their Big Gun---A Rod---goes hitless, and strikes out. Tonight's game should be very interesting. Yankee fans will be cheering loudly right from the get go.

I would say CC pitched decent at best. He was behind EVERY hitter and just battled his way through. He couldnt locate his breaking ball early in the game and that is what killed him.

I was shocked he only gave up 2 runs. I dont see the Yankee lineup being held in check like that anymore in the series! Should be a fun game tonight... Pedro back at Yankee stadium and a must win for the Yanks.

I don't have a dog in this fight, but I heard the Yankee fans were leaving way before the end of the game. It's no wonder New York couldn't rally and at least get a couple points on the board.

Oh yeah..the name is Norm..not Chief.

^^^ No! Posada and Jeter are botn much better than Ruiz and Rollins. Blasted Phils (Not Philly Mick) fans!!

Posada is not better than Ruiz thus far...he's just too old now. And Jeter does perform in the WS, but Rollins is much faster, much better defensively, and has more power. Jeter has a higher OBP and BA, and that's it.

I would say CC pitched decent at best. He was behind EVERY hitter and just battled his way through. He couldnt locate his breaking ball early in the game and that is what killed him.

I thought CC pitched well. Not great, but good. And I think Pedro will get rocked tonight.

People who haven't watched the Phils all year don't realize how good they are...last night they went in to Yankee staduim, faced up against the ace of the staff and won...the best part, if you are a phillies fan, they didn't play their A game last night. Obviously Lee did but the rest of them can and will be better...I don't think the series gets back to NY.

Whoa...

Do you think the Yankees play like that all the time? Our ace was WAY WAY off of his game and he even admitted that. Our offense was putrid. The Yankees won 103 games... and do you think ANY of their wins came when they played as bad as they did last night??? Dont just talk about the team you follow if you dont follow the opponent as well.

Whoa...

I know plenty about the Yankees...the entire national sports media covers as if they are Gods. I have seen them play plenty...and they are overrated.

They can still be a tough squad, they can still be the World Champs and be overrated...hell if i didn't know better 24 hours ago I would have thought there was no point in playing series...the fact of the matter is with the way they have been hyped anything less then then winning a 5 games series and they would have been over rated!!

[QUOTE=Lefty-Golfer;384933]

Whoa...

Not even close... can you name another game where they struck out 10 times and didnt walk AT ALL??

They might have won games 1-0, but they certainly had chances in other games. They had 2 runners on base at the same time in 1 inning last night.

Boy, is there a divergence of opinion on how Pedro will pitch tonight. He is a crafty, veteran pitcher, and his last outing was incredible. I think he will do very well. If he can last 88-94 pitches and do well, that will be an accomplishment and the Phils powerful lineup will give him enough runs for "breathing space".

There is a big difference between playing bad and still winning and getting beat by a better team on a given night. Last night they didn't play that bad they were just beaten...by a team which on that night was better.

They didn't make errors, they didn't walk the house (except for the bull pen) but the game was already well under way...they just got beat. Sometimes you have to give the other guy credit. Doesn't really matter, we'll find out for sure in a week. I am leaving 20 minutes to jump in a Limo and head up the game!!! (obvious brag on that)!!!! so i don't have time to stay and argue.

Im not arguing... I tipped my cap to Cliff Lee. It was a stellar outing. But if anyone says the Yankees played good didnt watch the game. They were swinging at balls, they were falling behind in the count, CC was falling behind in every count. Thats not good baseball... sure they didnt make errors. But bad baseball goes beyond errors and walks.

That was freaking hilarious!!!

Was he thinking of letting it drop and then throwing to second base? Was that an option? Was the infield fly rule in effect? It looked like a last second decision to catch it.

    • I too, like @GolfLug, remember great wedge, iron shots, or my missed putts, more than my made putts. My most memorable recently, would be: #17 Old Course St. Andrews (last year) I had been putting awful all day (I started 3 putt, 4 putt, 3 putt, 3 putt), but found a putting stroke on the back 9 and was 1 under on the back going into 16 and of course I 3-putted it for a bogey. Got to 17 and my playing partner just hit it into the hotel, so I went a little more left and decided to not try and hit it over the hotel.  And as soon as my ball was in the air, I heard one of the other caddies do the chicken noise.  LOL My shot was a little more left than I wanted, about 185 yards, I hit a 6-iron and it was drawing right at the flag.  The pin was just to the right of he bunker and towards the front of the green. My ball hit short (and just missed going into said bunker) and stopped about 15 feet left of the hole. Had a little left to right break and as soon as I hit it, I knew it was in.  Birdie on the road hole, looked at the caddie and said not bad for a Chicken.  Parred 18 (missed 10 foot birdie putt) for a 35 on the back 9 at the Old Course. #18 Springfield G&CC Last year while playing in our season long match play event, my partner and I get the 18th hole needing to win the match to move on into the knockout round.  We are tied going into 18.  A tie and we lose on overall points by .5.  Our teaching pro is on the other team (very good golfer), so we were pretty sure we needed a birdie to have a chance to win the match, I hit on of the best drives I hit all day and had about 135 yards to the pin, but it was in a place where you didn't really want to be long.  So I hit a PW and it landed just short of the flag but released about 12 feet past the hole, so have a devilish putt coming back down the hill.  Our competitors were away and the pro missed his birdie putt by inches, I thought it was in when he hit it.  So after reading the putt, which probably had a 2 cup left to right break, I made the putt to win the match.   #15 Springfield G&CC A few years back, was playing in the first round of the Club Championship (against the previous years runner-up) and my putter was balky all day.  Got to the 15 hole, 2nd Par 5 on back, and was 3-down with 4 to play.  We both hit good drives, both hit good second shots and we both hit decent 3rd shots.  I was about 15 feet and he was just a hair longer.  He missed his putt, I had another slider putt down the hill, with about a foot of right to left break and made the putt.  I birded the next hole, to go 1 down, but not a memorable putt as I only needed a bogey to beat him on that hole, he had all kinds of issues going on.  Lost on 17, as he birdied it, right after I missed mine to lose 2&1.

    • Ok so as of this point the bug persists. We figured out that I can select the tees (gold or blue) manually and it resets the back 9 scorecard to the Lake course, but as soon as I add #10 manually, it automatically sets the back 9 as Ridge and no amount of playing around with the tees changes it. And it still doesn't save #10 when I sign off. Andy from support said he will speak to the tech team about it, but it seems there isn't anything either of us can do at this point. I've accepted that #10 is simply lost. I now have 17 correct holes and that's going to have to be good enough.
