Bobtaco says:

Marrte to start the 8th? or straight to Mo?

Start him off the inning. Howard is crap against LHP.

 
 
 
Stadium Garlic Fries says:

Marte..a true Yankee //wfan’d

 
Bob Stone says:
 

Fuckin’ love it, Damaso.

 
Tubby says:

Milk was a bad choice.

 
NYTraveller says:

Damaso Marte = Graeme Lloyd

 
Esteban says:
 
PaulF says:

Marte has been money this series. Who would’ve predicted he’d be our second most valuable reliever in the WS?

 
Riddering says:

Marte just made Reggie Jackson’s day.

slappy white says:

and Slappy White’s

 
 
Hall and Nokes says:

Given that the score will be 11-3 going into the 8th, I’d go with Marte for one out, Phil for 2 and then the Almighty.

Bob Stone says:
 
 
Jackson says:

That was the Phillies last real threat

Bob Stone says:
 
 
toad says:
 
Will says:

Oh god, DJ Hero again.

 
Voice of Reason says:

Marte really wants the set up job next year.

 
Eric says:

Leave Marte in for Howard then bring in Mo?

 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

What is this horrible DJ Hero crap?

 
Tampa Yankee says:

Let’s add to this shit!

 
Whizzo the Wize says:

The Yankees are good at baseball.

Whizzo applauds that.

 
ansky says:

This DJ Hero highlight is an EPIC FAIL.

Riddering says:

Even Jeter thinks that plug is lame.

 
 
NatalMike says:

6 little bitty outs to go

 
Lucas A. says:

My guess is that they go to Hughes for the 8th with a four run lead. Well, I assume Marte would stay in for Howard. But I don’t think they’ll go to Mo in the 8th with this lead, even in a clinching game. Could be very wrong.

Esteban says:

I think Marte stays in for Howard and maybe Werth and Ibanez

 
 
Arman Tamzarian says:

Wow, Damaso really has come up clutch

 
Dela G says:

that was fucking awesome

 
Yanks 4 Life says:

Let’s score 5 here and bring in Hughes.

 
dkidd says:

every time they show the joe carter home run, i look for the ball going over the fence. i can never find it

 
Voice of Reason says:

Is Buck serious about Matsui hitting a triple? He has to be joking. Right?

 
ansky says:

I’m scared that Matsui has been so calm tonight…his wife is in some trouble tonight…they might make a baby!

Doug says:

How does one make love to a drawing?

Actually, the Japanese have probably figured that out and I don’t want to know how they did it.

 
 
Hall and Nokes says:

a Matsui triple would crack me the freak up.

Jeremy says:

You and Matsui’s knees.

 
MJM says:

several people would have to fall down and potentially hurt themselves for Hideki to even try for third.

 
 

Tex almost killed Mike Kelleher.

 

Weak. It’s Mick Kelleher.

 
 
Sleepy Carl says:
 
NYTraveller says:

Tex-AClutch-Godzilla vs. Chan Homer Park

This has tack on written all over it. Let’s get some more.

 

marte is straight fucking gangster.

six to go.

 
Salty Buggah says:
 

Let’s go, A-Rod. Tack on HR, please.

 
Brazilian Yankee says:

It’s amazing that we are about to win the WS with our #3 hitter (not) hitting like Tony Womack.

 
Esteban says:

I don’t know why people think Chan Ho is an awful pitcher.

Brazilian Yankee says:

He used to be. He’s on steroids now, so he’s not anymore.

DreDog says:

And added a spitter to his arsenal.

 
 
 
Bobtaco says:

Will Tex still get killed in the papers if the Yankees win?

Esteban says:

only as a footnote. No one will really care.

Bob Stone says:

I agree. He had a great season and some key hits in the ALDS and ALCS.

 
 
Marcus says:

No, but next year in ST he’ll have to talk about it endlessly.

Chef says:

stupid if he does. you face great pitching in the playoffs. can’t expect all your hitters to be good.

you hope 2 or 3 get hot and ride them

 
 
 
Riddering says:

Well, there’s always next postseason Tex.

 
pete says:

obviously not quite over yet, but who’s your MVP?

Jeremy says:
Bob Stone says:
 
pete says:

i could go for giving it to Girardi

 
 
 

Alex…what are you looking at?

 
dkidd says:

time for an exclamation point, alex

 
Jeremy says:

Why is ARod looking at teh meatball twice?!1

 
Stadium Garlic Fries says:

when everyone goes to parade on Friday, Tex and cano extra Batting practice with Long.

Bobtaco says:

and Gardner can practice bunting

 
Sleepy Carl says:

Cano is getting fucked by Babip. He has been hitting the ball hard, just right at them.

 
 
Tubby says:

Tex better be the one handing out goggles. He needs to do something.

 
Jeremy says:

::cue clown music::

 
ansky says:
 

That works. Time for a triple, Hideki.

OFs are gonna have to fall down at least twice for that to happen.

Voice of Reason says:

They would have to run into eachother and knock eachother out. Rollins, on his way out, trips and breaks his ankle. He crawls to the ball, throws it in, and Matsui is into third on a close play.

ShuutoHeat says:

MO can be cruel and he will make it happen, just to see the look on Buck’s face.

 
 
 
Reggie C. says:
 
Jay says:

Finally. The Yankees got a Phillies hit.

 
Doug says:

A-Rod can get cheap seeing-eye singles, too.

 
dkidd says:

scott eyre = mothra

Yanks 4 Life says:

That was freaking funny.

 
ShuutoHeat says:

you sir get mad props with the Godzilla reference!

 
 
Yanks 4 Life says:

A nice stat padding hit :)

 

Hah, that Phillies bullpen deserves a http://www.sadtrombone.com for that play on the A-Rod’s hit.

 
JeffB says:
 
Doug says:

Aw man, no Korea vs. Japan matchup.

 

Let’s go Matsui-sama.

 
Dela G says:

let’s go godzilla

 
dkidd says:

what slapsticky sequence of events would have to occur in order for matsui to get a triple?

Jeremy says:

Men in Black-style UFO sighting.

 
 
toad says:

A Matsui HR would be absolutely incredible/wonderful here.

Yanks 4 Life says:

they may have to build a new stadium if he goes deep.

 
 
Mister Delaware says:

If he buries this ball 8-10 feet underground, he might triple. And that would be wonderful.

 

Hideki…no. Do not do that.

 

Why do managers insist on bringing in LHP against Matsui?

Riddering says:

Matsui shares his porn collection with them.

 
 
Riddering says:

I’d like to give a shout-out to Girardi for putting Matsui behind A-Rod again.

Thank you, Joe!

Bob Stone says:
 
 
Salty Buggah says:

Now THAT’s another bad call. He didn’t go.

 
Esteban says:

DFA Matsui for that K

 
 
Tampa Yankee says:

Yeah it doesn’t look like Eyre has ever turned down “chocolate covered” anything or “ran it off”

 
Brazilian Yankee says:

Is that swing, really? Why is it so hard to get a good umpire?

Chef says:

was the right call… same as utely

 
 
Yanks 4 Life says:
 
Riddering says:

Ah damn. I was hoping to see Jorgie juice one.

 
Stadium Garlic Fries says:

I guess make up call had to be made for Utley..i still prefer this way..

 
Hugh Jassman says:

Hah, They want you Robbie!

 

Fuck umpires.
Let’s go Cano. Make them pay.

 
NatalMike says:
 
Chef says:
 
ansky says:

wow Robbie getting no respect. I hope he cracks one outta here.

 
Jeremy says:

Sort of looked like the Utley swing to me, so I can’t complain.

 
dkidd says:

come on robbie

make ‘em pay

 
Ivan says:

Matsui is a CHOKA!!!!

 
JeffB says:

Can Robbie make them pay?

 

Make them pay, Robinson. I said you’d get a big hit tonight along with Tex. He’s done his part, you do yours.

 
toad says:

Redemption chance for Robbie.

 
Jay says:

This is one of those times that Cano hits a rope into left center. That’s what I want to see.

 
NYTraveller says:

Make them pay, Cano.

 
HolyGhostClaw says:

Cano, make them remember you!!!

 
Tampa Yankee says:

Jimmy Fallon really?

HolyGhostClaw says:

Shouldn’t that giant bag of douche be making the sequel to Fever Pitch?

 
Doug says:
 
 

Spiiiiiike! Jungle Feaver was awesome!

 
 
Jeremy says:

Spike Lee wins the award for most horrendous Yankee cap of the night. Damn.

Bobtaco says:

I believe he had a hand in designing that thing

 
 
slappy white says:
 
Tony says:

lets go robbie – you can do it

 
Tubby says:

Time for a field goal

 
Esteban says:

Cano definitely is due to join the party.

 
pete says:

aight robbie. hit one the fuck out of here.

 
Marcus says:

A hit would go a long way to refurbishing Robbie’s postseason image

 
yanks33 says:

Come on Robbie you so deserve a hit in this game!

 
ansky says:

fuck that was the pitch.

 
Esteban says:

Cano’s trying to hit it our

 
Brazilian Yankee says:

Cano swinging through 88mph fastballs…

Tony says:
 
 
Dela G says:

did he swing?

i swore he didnt swing

 
Jeremy says:

Healthy, healthy cuts.

 

That swing encompasses Robbie’s postseason: head off the ball and a swing that was way too long.

 
PsiFighter37 says:

Goddamn, that one was right in the wheelhouse.

 
Jay says:

Man. He can’t catch up to 88mph fastballs.

 
Ivan says:
 
Yanks 4 Life says:

Did anyone tell Robbie that the World Series has started?

 
Riddering says:

Damn, Cano. Just shameful.

 
 
PsiFighter37 says:
 
cjc says:
 
Jeremy says:
 
Esteban says:

Cano = wow not in a good way

 
Chef says:

shocking seeing cano swing through so many pitches.

 
Dela G says:

wow cano has been BRUUUUUUUUTAL

 
Bobtaco says:

Cano wins the Soriano award

 
DontChaKnow says:

hits 320 in the regular season and cant hit shit in the playoffs….what the fuck

 
 
dalelama says:

Cano is really starting to piss me off

Chef says:

dont worry. that was his last ‘09 at bat

 
Jackson says:

Who gives a shit, the Yankees are 6 outs away from winning the World Series. Cheer up.

 
 
Jake H says:

Do you throw Marte against Howard then Mo?

Brian says:

With a 4 run lead, that’s what I’d do

 
Bobtaco says:

I think Girardi should go that route. Mo with a big lead is usually not so pleasant.

 
 
AJ says:

Six outs away…

I think Marte will start this inning out, but one baserunner gets on and it’s Mo time.

Voice of Reason says:
 
Ivan says:

Just go straight to Mo.

 
 
Ivan says:

WTF Cano? Mo Time.

 
JeffB says:

Where did ninja-Robbie go?

 
sean says:

is it possible for cano to be excluded from postgame shenanigans?? maybe have him sit in his locker behind the baggie while everyone celebrates??

HolyGhostClaw says:

Maybe he can work valet and bring the Phillies their cars?

 
Yanks 4 Life says:

Maybe sit him in the corner with his thumb in his mouth. He has been doing that in the batters box all series anyway.

 
 
Tony says:

ano swings like a Brazuka

 
JMK aka The Overshare says:

What happened to Cano? Can’t catch up to 88 mph fastballs? Our worst hitter this post-season?

pete says:

good locations. cano’s not trying to work an AB there, he’s going with the “ima hit one out da park now” approach. it’s not working. no biggie.

 
 
dalelama says:

Seriously has any World Series winner gotten so little out of so many ?

 

Stay big, Damaso. Stay big.

 
NatalMike says:

At least Cano was consistent…consistently bad

 
dkidd says:

somewhere, willie wilson is holding his breath…

 
JackISBACK says:

Cano should be forced to clean up after the celebrations. Give him a vacuum because he’s created enough wind this postseason, time to reverse it.

C’mon Marte.

 
Camilo Gerardo - your inception? fuck perception, go with what makes sense says:

making scott eyre look good. remember singleton’s line in spring training anyone? “… but to Eyre, divine.”

 
ansky says:

So the Phillies are champions for 6 more outs.

 
NYFan50 says:
 
JackISBACK says:

6 pitches, 2 Ks. SIT DOWN!!

 
Dela G says:

damaso mrte has been a fucking man

 
 

Utley + Howard: SIX PITCHES, SIX STRIKES!

 
slappy white says:

MARTEis also a centaur

 
Tampa Yankee says:

Wow! Leave Marte in, he’s dealing. Mo’s ready if needed

 
ansky says:

MARTE is a BEAST!!!

 
Brazilian Yankee says:

Marte – 6 pitches, 2 K’s.

Domination.

Tony says:

Brazuka in the house

 
 
Jackson says:

And Willie Wilson is now completely erased from memory

 
Tony says:
 
Jeremy says:

6 pitches, 2 outs. Lefty specialism at its finest.

 
 
Salty Buggah says:

MARTE!!!!!

Howard just broke the all-time World Series K record.

 
Yanks 4 Life says:

Does Damaso mean Filthy in spanish?

 
NYFan50 says:
 
Hugh Jassman says:

Here comes the Sandman!

 
 
DontChaKnow says:
 

Way to go, Damaso. End this shit.

 
Doug says:

Ryan Howard? Phone call for you, it’s your face. Soccer practice is over, and you need to PICK IT UP!

 
JeffB says:

Marte to Mo!
Who knew?

 
Voice of Reason says:

Marte strikes out both batters he faced. I would let him pitch until one gets on, or just until the 9th inning.

 
Ivan says:
 
Nathan says:
 

EXIT LIGHT!
ENTER NIGHT!

 
JoeFromBayRidge says:

And New York City rejoices, for Mo has come.

 
NatalMike says:

has Marte’s stock risen or what?

 
AndrewYF says:

So, what are the chances Jose Tabata would have impacted a Yankee championship run to the extent Marte has?

Trade: justified.

 
NYFan50 says:

Howard set the WS strikeout record.

 
ShuutoHeat says:
 
Jake H says:

Seeing Mo run in sends chills down my spine.

 
PsiFighter37 says:

Eh, I would’ve left Marte in, this strikes me as unnecessarily cautious, especially given how Marte’s been dealing.

Oh well. Game over now.

 
Yanks 4 Life says:

I hate Fox. That entrance is EPIC!!!!!

 
ansky says:

And here comes….GOD!

PS Congrats on breaking that record Ryan.

 
Jay says:

Those fuckers at Fox! They couldn’t give us another 10 seconds or so?

 
Jackson says:

Man, that entrance is so badass.
