Gets Damon, now it looks like Oliver coming in to face Tex with the bases still loaded.

Huge AB coming up for the Yankees. Damon up with the bases loaded and one out. Still a 4-0 Angels lead.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 22, 2009 -> 07:39 PM) Weaver's on tap for game 6 right? I think it is Saunders then Weaver but I'm not sure. Angels finally getting the benefit of some calls tonight. A couple of called third strikes that definitely weren't strikes and Damon was definitely safe at first there.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 22, 2009 -> 07:23 PM) With Lackey on the mound, good chance that this series goes back to NY and Pettitte I think the Angels need to keep scoring runs but it looks good for them to get the series back to NY. Especially with a seemingly big strike zone being called tonight.

AJ Burnett getting absolutely destroyed early on. Also, Tex is having just a horrible postseason at the plate for the Yankees outside of that game winning HR against the Twins.

Refs from the Arkansas/Florida game suspended by the SEC. Too bad they were allowed to gift Florida a win before being suspended.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Oct 16, 2009 -> 02:37 PM) I meant Jermaine Jones from Germany if FIFA clears him. I'm not that big of a Clark fan. If Jones isnt cleared, then I guess a Landon-Clark-Bradley-Torres. Jones has been cleared to play for the US

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 20, 2009 -> 10:28 PM) This is totally their year. They finally went out and signed some good pitching, instead of some flukes. It shows. Yep, they went out and got a true ace and another guy with dominant stuff. They also went out and got the 2nd best 1B in baseball. They went out and spent their money on true studs and if they do that they are going to be the best team in baseball year in and year out. The scary thing is with Damon, Nady, and Matsui off the books they could easily get Holliday and still bring one of those guys (likely Damon back). And then I'm sure they are going to go all out for Mauer in 2010.

Sabathia is proving to be worth the money and then some for the Yankees so far this postseason. Great performance.

I'm surprised the Angels aren't just putting A-Rod on here.

BTW Girardi really needs to bench Swisher. 0-3 at getting the runner home with less than 2 outs the last 2 days.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Oct 20, 2009 -> 08:53 PM) That might be the worst call I've ever seen. Wow. Luckily it doesn't effect the game at least.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 20, 2009 -> 07:39 PM) Nice to see Nick Swisher playing big in the lime light again... He is hitting about .130 in the playoffs including 0-4 with 9 LOB with RISP in the ALCS so far. He basically cost them the game yesterday by failing to get the runner home twice from third with less than 2 outs. If he gets the runner home both times the Yankees put that game away early.

Another blown call by the umps. This is ridiculous.

QUOTE (PlaySumFnJurny @ Oct 20, 2009 -> 08:45 PM) Scoscia should ask for a sample of A-Rod's pee. I'm not sure why anybody is surprised by A-Rod killing it in the playoffs. It was only a matter of time before he had a monster postseason with how great of a player he is.

I have to imagine that Yankees fans are going to be all over Girardi for that move. What ridiculous over managing. Take out the guy who has been outstanding in the playoffs and was looking great tonight for the guy who has been awful thus far in the playoffs seemingly has worse stuff. This after Robertson retires both batters he faces easily. Awful awful managing.

Angels win. I think that was a huge mistake by Girardi pulling Robertson for Aceves with how dominant Robertson has looked.

So that Mariano Rivera guy is pretty good.

Terrible play by Rivera there, good throw and he had Mathis easily.

LOL at Swisher in this series. Just getting breaking ball after breaking ball and can't do anything with those pitches.

Unbelievable how many base running mistakes there have been in this postseason. What the hell was Abreu doing.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 19, 2009 -> 06:15 PM) Shiit...Jepsen blows it. He has no command at all right now.

Huge HR there by Posada after Joba had a terrible bottom of the 7th. Also a great call on that pitch out by Scioscia or else the Angels could be down right now.

What the f*** was that pitch selection by the Yankees against Guerrero? Throw him a fastball with two strikes? That makes absolutely no sense, you should never throw him a pitch in the zone in that situation.

Swisher and Cano are killing the Yankees today and Jeter and ARod continue to be the only Yankees to really produce at the plate so far.
