I think the series has been a let down .Boston's pitching has been off against most teams lately.I only saw Beckett and Del Carmen walking guys,and then I turned away from the one-sided mess.Ump's strike zone was pretty tight on some of Beckett's pitches.An ump that has a narrow zone like that always is the last thing people should want to watch.Del Carmen was a different story(almost all obvious balls.) The Yanks are really only beatable one way(a good starter coming to pitch.)Boston got 5 runs today,and 10 runs last night.That means Yank pitching is average.If they run into a top pitcher,they will get beat 5-2 etc.Didn't we see that a couple times last weekend?

I'm far from a Yankee fan but I appreciate good players and good teams...the Yankees are a good team with good players! The tired argument that they buy championships is simply sour grapes...the Mets don't have 26 titles (OK, they haven't been around as long but you get my point), the Yankees have the money partly because they are in a major market but largely because of their winning history! Compare their history to major market teams like the White Sox, Cubs, Dodgers etc. Also, they bring some pretty good players up through their farm system...Cano anybody?? Boston could have had A-Rod but they backed down, they also sold a fair pitcher to the Yanks awhile back, what was his name? Babe something??? I think he went on to have a decent career and hit a few home runs! I'm a Twins fan so I have every right to resent the Yankees, instead I appreciate what George does, it is good for baseball and gives a lot of angry and frustrated folks something to hate!
