2009 MLB Playoffs

You are right, and Pettitte went in the other direction. First, he could not find the plate and loaded up the bases. Then, HE WALKED IN A RUN in the World Series! When Hamels laid down a bunt, Pettitte and Posada got to the ball and stared at each other as if to say, "I thought that YOU had it".

It looks like Ryan Howard is trying to hit the ball to New York every time he is at the plate.

Couldn't agree more. I think he has "strike zone" confused with "stadium."

I guess people will learn before its over not to throw A-Rod anything close!!!

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOO... YANKEES WIN!!!

[Ben]

That freakin' sucked!

You guys are right, and his poor performance at the plate has really hurt the team.

[Sanzabar]

That freakin' sucked!

For the love of me... why do you continue piping fast balls to A-Rod??? Granted he has 2 hits (they are probably the biggest two hits of the ENTIRE playoffs for the entire Yankees team), but the guy can pound fast balls and especially high fastballs.

Also, that steal of 2nd and 3rd by Damon will go down as one of the greatest plays EVER by any Yankee in the postseason.

Well you see, Lee can throw the heater to A-Rod, because he knows where to put it. His location is so good that he can throw whatever he wants and not have to worry about big hits too often. Lidge on the other hand... you just know he has no clue where his next pitch is going.

Although this series isn't over yet, the Phils have certainly fallen so far down the shitter that it'll be nothing short of a miracle for them to come back. I put a Yankees pennant in my freezer to "cool them off!"

I've got to admit, that was a seriously great, heads-up play!

It was "heads up" by Damon, but let us face the facts---it was a HUGE boner by the Phils, with NO ONE covering third. Damon could not believe it when he saw it----just a wide open path from second to third!

No doubt; awful job as a pitcher by Lidge. When you're on the mound, you don't just pitch... :|

[Grndslmhttr3]

Ugly ass win but whatever

[dummyisdumb]

on to new york!

[PEZGolf]

GREAT WIN by the Phils as Chase Utley makes history. Jeter and Teixeira had the perfect opportunity to make a historic comeback in the top of the ninth, but they failed miserably---Jeter hit into a double play with Posada and Matsui on with no outs, and Teixeira contined to mess up by striking out. And now, we will have Game #6. I believe that Pedro will pitch for the Phillies.

I'm very happy to the Phillies won last night. Hopefully they can pull off a Game 6 win and force a Game 7 to make it interesting.

[NormH3]

This series gives me cramps..

[Sanzabar]

There are a lot of Phillies fans/rooters on here...

What were you thinking when you saw Damon get on with 2 outs? And saw A-Rod looming in the on deck circle??

[Lefty-Golfer]

There are a lot of Phillies fans/rooters on here...

Damon getting on base was nothing compared to having Jeter walk up there with 1st & 3rd nobody out...

Jeter walking to the plate was something along the lines of What F*ck, $%^&$^ bullpen, #$%^%$#4 damn it, I am gonna #$%^$##$% die here in the seats if this happens again...oh Double play ball whoohoo had it all the way!!! Great game, Pettitte on 3 days rest Wed night...and CC can't beat the Phils!! History could be made this week!!
