A-Rod smacks out a 2-run double to left. Score now 8-4 Philadelphia in the top 8th, and Lee is relieved for the night after his 110th pitch.

Cano's sac-fly scores A-Rod. Now 8-5 Philadelphia.

Neatly turned double-play: Robinson to Jeter to Teixera. I do appreciate well executed defensive plays.

Going to the top of the 9th and let's see if Lidge has got his stuff for tonight.

Oops —they went for Ryan Matson instead.

Posada doubles to right. No outs and Hideki Matsui is up at bat.

Matsui singles to left, a rolling grounder. Still no outs, runners at the corners and the top of the Yankee lineup is coming up.

Jeter grounds into a double-play: Rollins to Utley to Howard. A run scores but the bases are empty and Matson needs just one out.

Damon singles: rolling grounder up the middle and here comes Teixera.

Teixera strikes out. The Phillies get another trip to the Bronx.

A bit sloppy in the end, but a win is a win is a win.

But I'm doubtful about how well Philadelphia will do for Game 6 with Martinez on the mound —especially given how he manages to be gotten at by that "Who's Yer Daddy" crap the Steinbrenner Field crowd spews.

If we get a rain delay either tomorrow or Thursday, I think the temptation could be too great to bring back Lee on three days'.

Lee has never pitched in his MLB career on three days rest. Its absurdly more likely he’d go in the bullpen even with a delay.

This from the fans of A-Roid.

Looking bad: Pedro's got the bases loaded and Rodriguez at bat.

J.A. Happ gives up a 2-run double to Hideki Matsui. Score now 7-1 New York as Phillies pitching is literally throwing away the Series at this point.

The Phillies couldn't repeat oh well. We'll be back next year.

Bring on the off-season! I can't wait to see who the Yankees make unaffordable next!
