Game 1

oh my gosh, so many thoughts running through my head last night and this morning.

Utley's 1st inning walk was HUGE!.

Seemed like the Phils were in command the entire game even though game was very tight, 1-0 then 2-0, for most of it. I think Buck got it right last night, "Sabathia pitching really good game but just completely overshadowed by Lee's even better game."

can't believe more isn't being made of the really crappy weather that they endured most of the night. Ef Bud Selig. Lee and Sabathia deserved better for their matchup.

Rollins' defensive genius on the humpback liner that wound up doubling off Matsui and Cano. Another huge Yankees running blunder (though it was a very confusing play) on par with their 3rd base screw up against the Angels (which the umps blew). In fact, if the Angels play didn't happen, would the crew have spent the time figuring out the proper call last night? For instance, during the play it is still unclear to me if the 2nd base ump called the "out" because Rollins caught the ball or because he stepped on second for what was thought to be the forceout of Matsui.

That was a gigantic play - they go from one on and no out to none on and two out. At worst, they should have had a baserunner and only 1 out.

Lee is one cool cat. That catch of the pop up on the pitchers mound was goofy, funny, and crazy.

Honestly, if i'm a Yankee fan i can't be thrilled with sending Burnett out tonight. He's a good pitcher but i don't get a sense he's either dominant or a big game pitcher. Losing game 1 at home, I think they would have preferred to start Pettite in game 2, but he's not available cause of the game 6 rainout. 

Hallelujah.
