4 days off is too much. 2 would be good as it would easily set up the rotation again.Hopefully Scioscia will split the lefties, that had me worried with 2 lefties goin' in Femway.I picked the Yankees at the beginning of the season (also that the Angels would finally overcome the Redsox but lose to the Yankees in the ALCS), hope I'm wrong about the Yanks.IMO it will be a great WS from the AL side, but a dud if the Phils or Rockies make it.

Positives from game 1:Horrible defense, lackluster offense, mediocre pitching and the best the Yanks can do is 4 to 1.I think Guerrerro is spanish for grounds out weakly to short.

Yeah and I don't understand why Scioscia continues to bat him 4th.

Don't understand why the "neighborhood" play is not called correctly more often.

I don't remember the last time I've seen that called. At least it didn't come back to haunt them. Every announcer seems to blow the yankees and believe me I can't stand it either.

Jeter is about the only Yankee I don't hate...the guy plays the game the right way. I would love to have him on my team.
"The fact that we are here today to debate raising America 's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government's reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America 's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, "the buck stops here.' Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better."
~ Senator Barack H. Obama

2 bad managerial moves by Scioscia. Taking Weaver and Lackey out of the game.Lackey should have been left in for 1 more hitter, and Weaver should have pitched the ninth.I think I aged 5 years in the ninth inning.

The top of the 7th must have been heart-wrenching as well. Helluva win, gl in NY.Also, I thought that pulling Weaver was a very very odd decision. I mean yes, I understand that their goal cannot be just to win tonight but also to win the WS, and that it's a bad thing to destroy your closer's confidence, but Weaver dominated the 8th.

Absolutely.I also would've let Mathis hit away instead of trying to bunt.

In the playoffs and especially in an elimination game, you have to play to win tonight. Don't worry about tomorrow, win tonight. Torre always managed that way and I think it's the right way.
