Game 3, everyone witnessed one of the most overpowering pitchers in baseball dissect the Bronx Bombers. Yankees walked in front of the machine gun of Clifton Phifer Lee. 13 k's, 0 ER, 2 hits was all busted up by 1 walked, just kidding folks. By the way did you see the reaction from the Yankees Fans when Tex drew that walk? You would of swore he hit a grand slam. That how lights out Cliff Lee was. Rangers come through and just embarrass the Yanks on their own field. It looked like a total 5,000 fans saw the end of the game (that's being kind). Rangers end the game 8-0 and make it a 2-1 lead in the series.
Now don't go buying your World Series tickets just yet, well I guess you can because they do refund them. I'm just saying tonight that if the Yankees win tonight, the series is tied right back up and we have to win 2 out of 3. I know we are still new to this playoff thing but game 5 will have C.C. at home (which of course he pitches better at). I'm really not trying to be a negative Nelly (no pun intended) I just believe we need to be aware that these 7 game series are very long and anything could happen.
The good thing about this is we don't play the game and the Rangers do. The Rangers are very confident they can play with anyone and0 they are still attacking. Staying aggressive and just being relentless against their opponents. Rangers in game 4 we have Tommy Hunter vs A.J. Burnett. Burnett hasn't pitched in 17 days and has pretty much blown but of course he is a guy with the big contract. There is no middle ground with A.J., he will either sucks or be masterful. Tommy is just Tommy, he has the same stuff he has had all year long. I truly believe out of any game I believe this one is so far up in the air. Anything really could happen. Rangers could come out of this with a win if they come out early with runs. I still feel that the Yankees hitters are like a sleeping monster and the possibility of big scoring is possible. Especially that small Yankee Stadium, I see the possibility of some home runs tonight. Enjoy the game and Go Rangers!!
