I knew after he went 2-4 in Game 5 Tex had thawed out. A little rougher inning by Andy, but did well. Big baserunning error by Vlad Guerrero. Great heads up
play by Swish to double him up at 1B. We need to jump on Saunders now.

Doggone Damon! Had a chance to drive some runs in and lets Saunders off the hook with a week grounder to first to end the inning.

Andy's po'd!!! It's just one run but we had chances and haven't delivered. Andy's gonna gut this one out. I still feel good about our
chances. Let's go Yanks!!!! Mary Ann

So far the lineup has been pathetic with RISP. Six runners left already. We've got to keep them close.

Dammit Jorge!!! We let these guys off the hook again. A-Rod walks to give us a 3-1 lead, but Jorge DP'd us out of the inning.

Would have been nice to get a few more runs but at least we scored and took the lead. Saunders was flirting with disaster all game and now it's pitcher by
committee. We need a good inning by Andy and get back out there. How good has Oliver been for the Halos in this series. This game is far from over but I like
our team and I feel confident. Let's Go Yanks! Gotta love Andy, his certainly seems cool under the pressure. As I described him in the past-Old Reliable. I
really want him to get the win, it would break the tie he holds with Smoltz for most postseason wins.

Geez, Chamberlain scares me to death. He just does not look confident out there. Andy deserves the win. He pitched his ass off and I certainly hope the rest of
the squad mans up and doesn't the Angels take it away from him. We need to score in our half of the 7th.

Nice Joba!!! Two ground balls, a lucky trickle and he works out of it. What a job by Andy Pettitte! Now we have to get some more runs. Was anyone else
wondering why sciosca pulled Mathis for a PH?? The guy has killed us all series and you pull him out of the game?? Questionable move by sciosca. They are
bringing Mo in. Don't agree with this. I think you have to let Hughes at least start the inning or you tell him you don't believe in him. Let's Go
Yanks!! Mary Ann

I agree. Mo shouldn't have come in so soon. But, it is what it is. And the Angels are imploding. So, lets go Yanks!!!!!!!!

Sabathia won the MVP!!! Yes, it could have easily gone to ARod but our big man was certainly deserving. Celebrate tonight, take the day off tomorrow, but be
ready to go back to work on Wednesday night against the defending ws champs! Mary Ann

CC wins MVP. I for one would like to have seen ARod and CC share it. ARod was so very good this entire series. JMHO

Let's see; I'm sure ARod, CC and Mo will have a good series. I am sure Andy will do his job. I am sure AJ will be inconsistant; but my gut tells me
Jeter will be the MVP of the series and the spark to lead his team to the 27th.

Yes, Andy the Captain sure knows how to bring it when it comes to WS play, but I predict a big series for Tex. He started to swing the bat better in the last 2
games of the Angels series. It should be a great series, but this is certainly not a slam dunk. The Phillies have a better overall team than the Angels with
some very hot bats. Don't know if anyone has been reading the local NY papers but there is too much trash talking by some of our fans. We cannot make the
mistake of under estimating our opponent. The Phillies are the defending WS champs and have earned the right to respect from NY fans. Let's do our trashing
on the field, not in the media. Go Yanks, 4=27!!!! Mary Ann

Amen MaryAnn. This could be a slugfest for sure. I hope you are right about Tex. I hope Swisher follows suit or I'd consider starting Gardner. Derek rises
to the occasion so Andy may very well be right. All that said, if ARod keeps his pace he'll be the MVP unless beat out by a pitcher--Mo or CC. This down
time is killing me--imagine what it is doing to the team!!!! Go Yankees!!!! 4=27

Well, the Phillies are already putting locker room material out there. Jimmy Rollins predicted the Phillies in 5. Yeah, Jimmy, keep talking buddy.
