World Series Game 2: Hello, Pedro. Welcome back to the Bronx.

Philadelphia Phillies at New York Yankees, Oct 29, 2009 7:57 PM EDT


You again, huh?

by Elise Amendola - AP

You again, huh?

Let's see...in the last 24 hours, I've:

  • Thrown a pen at a Red Sox fan because he said, "I'm loving the way this series is going."
  • Told my buddy to go to hell when it came to my attention he bet on the Phillies to win the whole series.
  • Took a leave of absence from my best friend/sister for texting me during the game.
  • Changed the M and N on my coworker's keyboard because he said, "They lost BAD last night, huh."

And still none of these behavioral monuments to lunacy are as ridiculous as Pedro Martinez saying "Any time I hear that, 'Who's your daddy?' it reminds me that God is my daddy. It gives me strength. It keeps me strong and healthy, and I believe I can do anything."

So, if we consider that it was only 5 years ago that Pedro claimed the Yankees were, in fact, his daddy, by the transitive property, we can infer that Pedro thinks the Yankees are God.

Here we go. Game 2. Not a must-win situation, so I won't call it that. The Phillies send our boy Petey to the mound, who hasn't pitched in the Bronx since his Mets days in 2005. According to him, he's "older and wiser" which should bring his overall net intelligence to around sea level now. A.J. Burnett gets the nod for the Yanks, and I have this weird feeling that our boy is going to stun us (in a good way.)

The Phils are good. But the Yankees are the Yankees. And that's all you need to know going into tonight. Let's get 'em back, NY. This series is ours.

Not for the faint of heart

But I always think of this scene in House of 1000 Corpses when Pedro comes to mind…

This IS a must-win

It’s much different going on the road 1-1 than 0-2…matters big time for confidence that we can beat this guy (we’ll see him again in G6), and it means that if we take 1 of 3 in Philly (I think we’ll take 2), we’ve erased the damage.

by PortlandYankee on Oct 29, 2009 6:39 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

a must win

is when we’re down 0-3.

by CrazyYankeeChick on Oct 29, 2009 6:41 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Nope

Torre always saw G3s as must-wins to build momentum. It’s a huge psychological edge to walk out of the Stadium. And psychologically, can you think of a team more worrisome than these Yankees (Burnett, Tex, the chance of an A-Rod relapse, Swisher?).

by PortlandYankee on Oct 29, 2009 6:46 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Teams less likely to bounce back

The Angels, the Red Sox, the Twins, Rays, Jays, O’s, M’s, A’s, Rangers, Tigers, Royals, Indians, and the White Sox.
That’s just the AL.

Well said

Down 0-2 & heading to Philly for 3 games is not at all very good odds, and
I’ve been a Yankee fan for 45 years !!

The Yankees can do this!

Yesterday was a harsh wake-up call. They have been coasting through the playoffs so far, not doing much more than is necessary outside of a few key players. AJ needs to step up, so does Tex, Hughes, and Joba. They need to want this, not just think they deserve to win, that’s not how it works.

I hope the team is pumped and comes out ready to play.

Burnett

is what’s worrying me about tonight. i know he can be virtually unhittable, but he’s equally unpredictable. he’s a head case and will get wild, so i have no faith in him on the mound.

Probability on Burnett hitting Utley sometime during the game?

My guess is at least 70%, but it won’t be intentional. We can’t put someone on in front of Howard.

Burnett has 5 BB/HBP/WP's in him every night

it’s just a matter of whether they come in clumps.

by PortlandYankee on Oct 29, 2009 6:47 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I wish I shared your optimism on AJ

I have a bad feeling about him. Maybe it’s just residual fear from last night. On the other hand, I’m pretty sure we’re going to score off Pedro, so maybe we’ll win this in a slugfest.

Calm down

We lost because Lee pitched like the reincarnation of Cy Young. Pedro won’t, nor will Lee again on short rest.

Calm ????????

Oh I’m calm. Being a Yankee fan for 45 years has shown me the good times and the frustrating ones. I’m actually enjoying all this hoopla right now. But one thing that I do have a bad @@@@@@@ for is when people attack other people’s comments instead of sticking to the program. Do I make myself clear ? Do that again and I report you.

How about

Instead of threatening to report me, I don’t even know what that means, switch to decaf, take a yoga clas, maybe a bath with some fancy soaps and calm down.

by HappyLuckyGoldenDragonNumber1! on Oct 29, 2009 7:43 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

Maybe not

Andy’s pitching in Game 3 against Hamels, who is terrible (at least this postseason). I feel really good about that game. So even if they lose today, the series is still far from over. 1996 is a perfect example of a series that would have been MORE difficult to come back from down 2-0 in than this one, and they managed to do that.

It’s not time to get worried just yet. Relax a little. I agree it’s a VERY important game. But the series isn’t over if they lose this game.

That being said, I still really want them to beat the shit out of Pedro and win today, because it still IS VERY important. I hate Pedro.

We got AJ but never bid for Lee. Oh well, AJ please make me believe in you.

Ready to own Pedro tonight????

I sure am. Especially after that pitiful performance yesterday. I was at the game, and the stadium just wasn’t in to it. At all. I suppose Cliff friggin Lee had something to do with that.

Still, thinking positively, a win today ties the series with Andy going in game 3. That makes a Yankees fan feel pretty good.

Last night...

I decided to go to a nearby bar and watch the game… I live about 5 minutes outside of Philly… Here were some observations…

1) Yankee fans travel well. I would say the bar was 60:40 Phillies to Yankees fans, not bad considering the proximity to downtown Philly.

2) Philly fans aren’t used to winning. After watching the game quietly in a booth, I left the bar with my hat pulled down low. A, what only could be described as hippo-like man, Phillies fan got in my face, called me an asshole, and pushed me down a half flight of stairs. I would have fought back, if it wasn’t for the fact that 30 large men in Phillies hats were laughing behind him. Classy mo fo’s there.

3) While walking home, I witnessed 17 (yes, seventeen) cars driving by, honking horns, people hanging out the window celebrating like they just killed Hitler.

I hate living in Philly. I hate listening to these bandwagon baseball fans go through life thinking they are better than everyone. I don’t want to spend the next year of my life listening to endless bullshit from people who don’t shower, don’t think, and don’t know anything at baseball. If there is a god in heaven, he will not allow the Yankees to walk out of the Stadium without a win.

If your city’s behavior can make a Red Sox fan root for the Yankees, it’s time to reevaluate things. Maybe they should move all your franchises for a few years until you learn to behave.

I mean "stuff wise"

he was throwing a lot of hittable pitches that they weren’t hitting. I don’t expect he’ll get away with that forever. Damon missed a double by a foot, and Teixeira just got under it.

At the very least

they are working Pedro.

Why are we making Pedro look like Lee?

by TheDudeAbides9 on Oct 29, 2009 8:45 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

He’s thrown 43 pitched. Small consolation, but this is light years from last night.

because

the Yankees have forgotten how to hit in the World Series.

I don’t feel like this is going to be like last night though. They’re working deep counts on Pedro. Once they get to the 2nd and 3rd time through the order and they start getting a few breaks, things will start going well.

These are the times

when I’m glad that Molina is catching.

by nyyrocks29 on Oct 29, 2009 8:53 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Been listening for 20 minutes now

And not a single good thing from the commentators to say about the Yankees. I’m counting. Meanwhile, they’ve sucked up to Rollins several times. Nothing new, but it’s pissing off.

there's a compliment!!!

they just said that A.J. has the best curve in the game.

insist on predicting pitch locations? so annoying.

if you're going to battle like that

At least do something interesting. Strike out, hit the ball hard, something. Don’t tap back to the pitcher.

by long time listener on Oct 29, 2009 8:59 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I like the weak tapper back to the pitcher, when it’s our pitcher and their hitter.

Jimmy Rollins vs the Yankees

Isn’t it? Jimmy is probably responsible for saving children across the world too.

He is the best shortstop in the major leagues… Or haven’t you heard?

LMAO

One of the announcers (don’t know which) just got the date of Halloween wrong, then the other one made fun of him.

That intentional ball was the closest he came to the plate.
