[Scenic Sounds]

Good to see ya at the game again.

Who am I rooting for here?

[FlJoePa]

Yes!!! First and Second, NO OUT!

[Prodigal Son]

This is like a replay of an earlier inning. Conine walks, Encarnacion singles him to second.

[LizardQueen]

Matsui was an excellent pick up by the Yankees. He's a tough out

I agree. I don't care for the Yankees much (Mets fan) but I think Matsui's real good and he's the most interesting player on the team. I like watching him play.

[Mr. Mojo]

That, I don't know. .....I'll let you know if I find anything.

[lavrenti]

One out. Sacrifice successful.

Yankees really need to get on base.

[Doc On The Bay]

Sorry to dissappoint you, but since the Cubs & Red Sox Lost, Very Few Americans are interested in the "Vaunted World Series!!"

Rumor has it Zim has challenged Bill "Spaceman" Lee to a 'Steel Cage' match.

Let's get ready to ruuuuumble!

[TrappedInLiberalHell]

They ought to walk Pierre. Avoid the sac bunt.

[Mr. Mulliner]

the Yankees....are expected to win ALL THE TIME, aren't they?

So it seems to me the pressure is all on the Yankees. But you said it was the Marlins who had the pressure. I think the Marlins have been playing quite loose.

[Prodigal Son]

I heard that Zimm says he's quitting after this year because of Steinbrenner.

[My Favorite Headache]

3-1 FISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSH!!!!!!!

[Mr. Mojo]

I could care less who's interested, or what kind of ratings this series pulls. My team is in the WS yet again, and that's enough.

[FlJoePa]

Yes! Way to go Pierre! Throw shouldn't have been cut off.

[Pikamax]

the hell is boone doing?? throw it home if you want an out.

[TrappedInLiberalHell]

Looking very bad for the Yankees. The Marlins seem to be able to score at will.

[Cathryn Crawford]

Well, I thought I should always switch to the National League in these sorts of circumstances? ;-)

[TomGuy]

Marlins up 3-1.

[F16Fighter]

"Truthfully, I don't think I'll be revved up for this series until next week. .....Still savoring the game 7 win."

I hear ya. I'm just annoyed at the same ol' crap -- NO big hits, NO exploting baserunners, and Giambi coming up empty w/runners on. I don't know HOW he hit one homer -- nevermind TWO HRs off Pedro.

WHAT WAS BOONE THINKIN'!!!

[Burkeman1]

Ah Geesh! 3 to 1!
