wow. great baseball. MLB needed that last night.
billy wagner sux. i hope it comes down to the NLCS and the mets and phillies are in game 7 and billy wagner and lidge go back and forth blowing thier saves.
great pre game ceremony. but koufax and the others shoulda shown up. the ovation for yogi berra was really touching as he is the last living hall of famer to play at the stadium for the yanks unless they elect willie randolph or mattingly to the hall. yeah winfeild played, but he is a padre.
seeing willie mays, hank aaron, yogi, and the rest on the feild was great.
steinbrenner's entrance and ovation was great. knowing how he was, it was special seeing him in tears.
the game itself... wow. pitching showcase. jeter 1-3 with a SB. arod again shows he is an idiot by actually leaving the stadium when he was pulled. not much action until the homer by holliday and then JD drew. but it was all about the relief pitching just putting on a show. clutch all night outside of billy wagner.
the rivera entrance woulda been amazing IF FOX DIDNT SUCK AT COVERING SPORTS as they should have given the country a real example of what that place is like when Mo walks in. utter insanity. and the treatment of papelbon was histerical and shows why the yanks/sox is the greatest rivalry in sports.
my only issue is that the league shuold allow the pitchers to come back in in cases like last night and 2002. let the managers bring back in the starters if the game goes long.
