This is the 4th Game 6 in the World Series in the last 10 years. The Yankees were involved in 2 of the previous 3, losing both games - one to send the 2001 Series to a game 7 and one to finish off the 2003 Series for the Marlins. I don't really care who wins the whole thing, but I'd love to see the Phillies win tonight and give us one more game tomorrow night.

I hope this one is as good as the last game...
For what it’s worth, in his start earlier in the WS, Pedro gave up 3 ER in 6 innings, while Petttttitttttte gave up 4 in 6 innings. So this matchup might be decently even.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
Third!
I’m depressed RR, cheer me up.

I could use a personal assistant
The pay is lousy ($0), but I can keep you working.
Definitely a good argument.
I thought you'd found a job
But yeah, the economy is gawd-awful. We had a meeting about it at work today. No budget yet for next year. It’s almost next year now, but we have no idea how much money we’ll have. Except it will be less than we need.
And it seems like every day, I find out another blog or web site I used to visit has closed due to lack of funding.

I was working basically as a day laborer
Fun to be sure and the extra money was nice, but I finally realized I was pissing away time that could be better spent finding a job in my career field.

Hmm.
May have to cancel that Saturday morning trip to the bar then. I’m still on for going to the Rhino Bar in Georgetown in the afternoon though. Inexplicably, it is both an Ohio State and Penn State bar. That should go well.
That Spurs-Sunderland game will be a really good one
But other than that, I’d sleep in and prepare to go out and pummel Penn State fans. Not that you’d need the extra sleep.

Made from 100% Recycled Awesome,
Seen on Twitter - heard on BBTN
“The Yankees score 30% of their runs after the seventh inning.”
Which is 33% of the game. Great insight, BBTN guys.
Definitely a good argument.
Um.
In a nine inning game, the part after the seventh inning is about 22% of the game.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
As I note below
I think that in general extra innings almost exactly offset the loss of that half inning, though of course this varies slightly with team quality.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
It includes the 7th, I believe
they only scored 22% of their runs in the 8th and 9th innings. 36% when you include the 7th.
Definitely a good argument.
Interestingly
the Yankees registered 1450 innings pitched this year in 162 games, which works out to almost exactly 8.95 innings pitched per game.
Let me write out a formal proof for you.
Does that include the seventh inning?

So if he’s taking that from the airport, he should be fine. Fifteen minutes late but that’s par for the course. For some reason the bus/subway unions always strike but the regional rail guys never do.

I thought they had all closed by the time I was 8, but apparently there is still one open. It’s in Campbellsville, KY. I’m not sure where that is, but I want to go to there!

Matsui has seen all that crafty breaking-ball BS in Japan

he turned into “Groundzilla” when he first came over here?

Geeky observation from the high school catcher
…but note how much better Ruiz is at framing a pitch than Posada.
Jorgie seems to try to “pull” anything close. Ruiz actually gets his glove to the spot and actually keep it between the ball and the “edge” of the strike zone

I wonder if his hand is bothering him
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Maybe at the plate
…but he had no read at all on that Jeter hit. If that’s ’cause your hand hurts, you need to get off the field.

I haven't watched Damon much
…but he’s had some great ABs in this Series
"Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you!"
Damon was my pick for series MVP
I don’t think the Yanks will bring both Damon and Matsui back, but damn, it will be hard to lose either of them, the way they’ve been hitting.
All Things Bubba: Because how can you not love a baseball player named Bubba?
Seems like a tight strike zone tonight?
That’ll be tough on both pitchers

ballsy pitch by Pedro

I was trying to flirt with a waitress in New Orleans who was a big Hornets game

I disagree
CP3 and D-West are a pretty formidable duo, and they have shooter in Peja. They lack size, but they’re still a playoff team.

I was speaking more of NO in general
If CP3 were in Boston/NY/Philly/LA/Chicago, he’d be a HUGE star. He’s that good. Only the once-in-a-lifetime guys can overcome a crappy locale. (see: James, Lebron)
"What'd I say?"
You don't need to be in the huge markets to shine
Carmelo gets a lot of pub in Denver, Nash got a lot in Phoenix, etc etc. You only need to avoid the really small markets that lack tradition. I think if you’re anywhere other than OKC, NO, and Memphis, you can be a star.
But if the teammate's not ready, then is it really a great pass?
"If it wasn't this, it'd be something else."
You should always be expecting a pass when you're cutting through the lane
It’s not Paul’s fault that he’s a better passer than the point guards they’ve played with in the past.

Why I hate Yankee fans (BF excluded)
From Twitter: “I was 12 the last time this happened. I’m glad I can finally appreciate it.”
Definitely a good argument.
it was retweeted by a Pirates blogger
who, as you might guess, was less than impressed by the original twitterer’s good fortune
Definitely a good argument.
reminds me
of Doug Funnie. in this analogy, the role of the Yankee fan is being played by Skeeter Valentine.

I've seen them calling it the Curse of Mussina or the Curse of Giambi
because obviously it must be a curse to go a whole 8 seasons without a championship
Definitely a good argument.
At least we've only gone 19 (and counting)
