Great game. AJ's pitched very well in three of his four post-season starts and could easily be 3-1. It looks like Girardi has completely lost faith in his set-up men, though, which surprises me because they were solid in the regular season. I can't imagine what Phil Hughes is thinking now that they wouldn't go to him even with a 2 run cushion.

AJ is the man. Lets see Pettitte follow through now.

Philly is definitely going to be hostile, so I think Pettitte is the perfect man to get us started over there.

But damn, to think there will be a game this series with Burnett, Molina, and Swisher/Hairston/Gardner at the bottom of the lineup. That's rough.

the Phillies have the advantage in the bottom of their lineup cuz both Feliz & Ruiz can pop one if they get a good pitch to hit, but Burnett is 4-0 with a 2.33 ERA when pitching on 3 days' rest over his career & that's pitching on teams that didn't have nearly as potent a lineup as the one we have, so there's something to be encouraged about.

worried about burnett on the road but i guess if you pay the guy that much money, he should be able to pitch. they need to suck it up and not be treated like pansies.

i think we'll rock blanton in game 3. The lack of a DH will be interesting though. How many AB's do you give Andy if it is a tight game and how does that work with Girardi's constant bullpen moves. I have a feeling that the need to sub hitters in for the 9th spot will be critical at some point this weekend.

Hinske, Gardner & Hairston should all see late action in just about every game we play in Philly due to late game double switches Joe makes when the pitcher comes up to bat, & i wouldn't be overly shocked to see Matsui playing the OF at some point during the games either.

won't be around for the game discussion, hopefully our offense breaks out tonight & gives Andy some support... Alex needs to start waiting for his pitch & stop swinging at stuff off the plate... Joba & Hughes, time for u boys to step up!

Andy pitching out of trouble. Good sign.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

GREAT game so far! I was a little worried about Pettitte getting tired or out of breath from running the bases but that was about as light a trip around the bases as you could have.

girardi proving again why he's the manager of a 103 win team. hairston gets a hit in game 2 and now he starts swish again and he has delivered. every run counts since we'll need the pen tonight.

You guys are missing a dramatic first half of Clippers-Mavericks.
If you are still following the team and reading sites like this, there is nothing, short of your own demise, that is going to throw you off this train.

1 game off did him good... Girardi made the right moves in both cases... hopefully he's off the shnide now & can hit the rest of the series... love how Matsui's stroking the bat right now (no bukkake inference intended)
