a good game here or there doesnt make up for one of the worst seasons in closer life.

I like our chances in game 6, not game 7. but hey you guys are good and a-roid is a hot bat right now, you could very easily win this thing on Wed.

The series is still really in your favor. Would be a huge blow if Victorino cant play, even if he hasnt had the best of series. I think he will play, he's tough as nails.

I am really concerned about game 6. Really wasn't thrilled with Burnett on short rest, even less thrilled with Petitte on 3 days. Not sure about game 7. CC has been good so far and I really don't think he has had his best stuff. Who knows if he will have it on another short rest day. The good thing for the Yanks is that they will have Matsui and Posada back in the lineups for both games.
Not sure what to expect out of Pedro and whomever pitches game 7. Agree about Victorino, you got to love his toughness.
Both teams seem to be warming up at the plate (with the exceptions of Howard and Texieria). But I want to believe (obviously I'm biased) that the Yanks have so good at home all season, that they find away to win one out of two games. Perferably game 6, cause if it gets to 7 you would think that the Phills would have all the momentum and they would be playing with the house money after being down 3-1.
