VandyDelphia Mike Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 - By the way, Phillies fans, half the stadium walking out before the final pitch was FAR more embarrasing than anything Brad Lidge did yesterday.A good part of that half had probably spent the entire day from well before noon in that general vicinity if they had tickets to the Eagles game across the street. Yeah, the excuse is flimsy, but after Lidge has poured gasoline onto the fire that he started, and Mariano coming in with a 3-run lead, what does one expect?Right now, the Yankees' better is better than the Phillies' better. I at least want to keep New York from clinching in Citizens Bank Park. NCAA Baseball Champions | 2014, 2019 facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VandyDelphia Mike Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Philly just needs to keep swinging like they are now....for 2 1/2 more games Back-to-back record-tying ABs in the 7th. Utley plants one in the seats in right for home run #5, tying Reggie Jackson for most HRs in a World Series. Howard swings and misses for his 12th K of the series the next batter. Ties Willie Wilson for most Ks in a World Series.Are both records in jeopardy? NCAA Baseball Champions | 2014, 2019 facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Howard got kinda screwed on that last one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen guys not get called for worse, and I have seen guys get called on check swings that were not even close to Howard's. I don't expect too much out of these umpires anyway, and I don't think anyone else does either.But yea, the Phillies are very capable of winning the next two. It's just a matter of the other starters stepping up to what Lee has been able to accomplish. His World Series is over, so the other pitchers need to get in there and take this lineup out.

His World Series is over, so the other pitchers need to get in there and take this lineup out.Not even close. If this thing goes seven you can bet we'll see Cliff Lee pitch again. Hell, if it's tight in game 6 and the Phillies need an out or two we could see Cliff Lee pitch. Once you reach the 6th game in the World Series everyone in the bullpen is available. Especially in the Phillies bullpen. You win game 6 however you have to. You worry about game 7 when you get there. The entire staff can rest until February once this thing is over.Non-Yankees fans just have to hope that Joe Girardi starts over-managing again.

This is what you play for. It's the one time overworking your pitcher is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
