Lee pitch great, what can I say? You could say that if they lost 1-0 or 2-1 but they got their asses kicked last night. Lee could have given up 6 games worth of runs and the Yankees still would have lost.

It was 2-0 going into the ninth and then the Rangers scored 6 on the Yanks bullpen........So, in the bottom of the ninth, it would have been interesting to see how Lee would do on a high pitch count or the bullpen (if the Yanks bullpen hadn't imploded itself).

Not my point. Eryn said Lee piched great. But that's not why they lost. They lost because as you mentioned the bullpen imploded.

But they could have. You can't deny the fact that the bullpen totally !@#$ed that game up last nigth.

And even though his pitch count was 122, there's no way he was coming out if it was 2-0. The Yankees have dead bats and poor pitching. The Phillies have dead bats and great pitching. Texas has to be the hottest team right now.

Scott Boras: Mr. Cashman, you must sign my client to this egregiously large contract because, 1) The taxes in your state are ridiculous while in Texas there is no state income tax and B) If you do not sign him he will continue to destroy your team in the post season. Now, where was the glass of blood, errr... I mean tomato juice I was enjoying?

You come to the plate in the bottom of the ninth down by two at home with a whole different attitude than down by eight.

Phillies haven't hit for jack this entire post-season or regular season or last post-season. Unless the starters keep pitching shut-outs, they could bomb right out.

They just lost game three 3-0. I love rooting for west coast teams. No one knows abou them.

KD in CA Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Gee, I didn't realize that AJ Burnett was the first guy to ever start a playoff game after having an off year. The way they are going on about him, you'd think the guy just woke up from a six month coma.
