Congrats Yankees and their fans

[Gander]

I remember being so depressed and down on baseball after the Yankees beat the Sox in 2003 playoffs. I was eating dinner at Applebees the night of game 1 between the Marlins and Yanks. They had it on at the bar and I couldnt even watch. I angled my seat so I couldnt see the TV. Later that night I turned on the TV to see that the Marlins were about to win the game and they did. I still thought the Yankees would come back but they played (as you eluded to) like a very tired team.

My only question is how come the Red Sox sweep the Cardinals in 2004 after a very tiring 7 games with the Yankees, coming back from the dead? You cant tell me those pitchers werent tired?

No Tim they werent, dont you remember that series?
You got blown out so badly in a few games that you lost that the starters were removed anywhere from innings 2-4. They didn't pitch as many innings. The Yanks Boston series in 2003 were tight games where starters stayed in a long time, and then at the end both teams were using starters on no rest as relievers. Apples and oranges Tim. Come on, you have a better memory than that.
