I am not really cheering for anybody with the Angels out of it. However, between the Phillies and the Yankees, I will take the Yankees any day

This World Series is my worst nightmare. Being a Mets fan, I hate both. But that said, being a New Yorker i hate the Yankees less.

Chase Utley is amazing. Don't know if he can become Mr. November.

Go Phills....Pedro next up at Yankee Stadium. It should be a good game.

Bad move by Girardi to run Burnett out there on short rest with a 3-1 series lead. Should have thrown Gaudin and then had Burnett on full rest, followed by Sabathia if needed.

They also 2nd guess Phil's decision to hold Lee for 4 day rest. Seems like he may need these 4 days to contain enough of NY's bat. Besides, they do have chance in Game 4 anyway.

That is the fun of the game, you never know which decision is correct.

I said that before the game. I think that they had a feeling with the Phils best picter up that they may just want to give them one and then bring it home,

Are any of you going to (or have you gone to) any of the games?

Where are all the Red Sox fans who should be voting in our poll as Against the Yankees?

Phils looked good last night except Lee tired quickly. He looked great in 7th but started finding the middle of the plate in the 8th. Can't do that to a powerhouse like the Yankees. Pedro can beat a tired Pettitte but the 7th game could prove troubling. Somehow the Phils seem to do it and I keep the faith in spite of having to win two in Yankee Stadium. Entertaining series so far.
Yes, I was at all three home Phils games

I am only pulling for the Yanks to win one more World Series for the senior George S.
