That was a bad call, but it was made even with Utley called out on that double play in the 8th. It was real hard to tell with utley, was only able to tell when they slowed it down, so both calls were though calls, and the umps got them wrong both times, but at least it wasnt so blantent.
AJ Burnett was great.. was excited a little when we got to him a small bit early.. but then he turned on another gear and pitched well. Rivira was good too, but was also hopefull seeing us get some hits off him.
Pedro was very good (just a small handful of mistakes that the Yanks capitolized on). was pissing me off when the damn commentaters were like 'he's going to strike out the side.. the heart of the yankees lineup.. I knew Matsui was going to do something when the damn fox guys started talking like that. A little bummed that our pitchers only gave up 3 runs and we couldnt capitolize on that, didnt hit great with runners in scoring position.
On to Philly.. Phillies did what they wanted to and got homefield back, they have been terrific (11-1) in post series games at the Bank.. but this is going to be a great great series. I'm hoping Cole gets his head on right, dont want to pitch out of the bullpen for 5 innings thats for sure.
I'm thinking this series goes 7 games.
