I think win or lose the WS, Lidge is done in Philly. That 9th inning was the icing on the cake for him. There are a lot of closers on the market this year so he will be gone. Amazing how someone can go from being so good to crap in such a short time.

Sabathia is tough to figure out. Sometimes he is absolutley unhittable, and other times he is average at best. It is hard to determine that varriable that makes him so good, his last few starts in Cleveland weren't great. Then he came to the Brewers and was fantastic.

Until playoff time and the Phils knocked him around. No doubt the guy is a top line pitcher, but as those of us who remember 1964 know, pitching guys on short rest constantly is a recipe for disaster. Burnett went on short rest today and he did not look anything like the Game 2 guy. Neither has Lee on his normal rest. Game 6 will see Pettite on short rest as well. We shall see

Good game, I almost expected a comeback in the top of the 9th.
Congrats to Utley, hope he brakes RJ record.

No about 30 years ago in some movie. Can't remember title but it was a WWII film. Always thought it was funny.
