Everyone can now wake up and realize that the Phillies have been flying under the radar. No way should the Yankees have been such overwhelming favorites in this series and we see why as Cliff Lee out-duels CC Sabathia and Chase Utley single-handedly out-hits the entire Yankees lineup.
Now the problem for the Yankees is this: If Burnett doesn't beat Pedro tonight, they might be on their death bed. I know I'm the only person in the world who still believes Cole Hamels is throwing well, but agree or not, that is going to be a very difficult game for the Yanks to win (game 3, back in Philly, Pettitte-Hamels). That means if they lose tonight they might be starting at 0-3. Looks like it's time for AJ Burnett to finally step up and show us all why the Yanks signed him to such a lucrative deal.
...oh and he has to out-pitch arguably one of the 5 greatest pitchers of all-time in Pedro Martinez (an old, lesser version, of course).
King James and the Cavs fall to 0-2? Glad I didn't get that Eastern Conference preview out saying the Cavs would win 70 games. The king did notch a triple-double in a losing effort.
God, the Knicks are dreadful.
