Rain Delay Win


After a long rain delay and a day of trick or treating we got some baseball about 920pm.

The start of game 3 Cole Hamels looked like Whitey Ford though the first few innings. Andy Pettitte was on the ropes but he led on. When the umps made the right call on A Rod's opposite field homer we were back in the game.

Then the offense took over and Girardi's move to keep Nick Swisher in there paid off with his first big game of the post season. And with a Matsui homer off the bench and great bull pen work the Bombers took game 3 8-5.

It's far from over but with the win that means this series has to come back to the Bronx. As Yankee fans we will take that but we would love to take the next two down there, case closed.
