There's a 60 percent of a show through the game? That'd be a nice diversion during a rain delay..

was this only in the teams' markets ?

The addition of the Angels and Yankees ' Logos jumping around on the superimposed screens behind Eddie and The Boys was too much ! Excellent !



Lets Go Yankees !
Gonna be even more disgusting out there tonight weatherwise.

I don't like saying it but IF the Yankees don't win the World Series this year something is totally wrong. They appear to have this one in the Bag.

Peace

That game was completely nuts. I'm just really happy they pulled off the win. I swear I thought it was over after cano made that error in the 13th.

For those that care about minutia:

-Of Alex Rodriguez's 33 home runs this year (including playoffs) 18 have tied or given the Yankees a lead.

-The 21 players used by the Yankees set an ALCS record for an extra-inning game. The Oakland Athletics used 20 in a 10-inning game against the Tigers in 1972. The teams used a combined 38 players, breaking the ALCS record of 37 set by Baltimore and Cleveland in 1997.

-Jeter's home run was his 19th in the postseason. He moved past Reggie Jackson and Mickey Mantle for sole possession of third place on the all-time list.

-Rivera pitched more than two innings in the playoffs for the first time since Game Seven of the 2003 ALCS. It was the fourth time in the playoffs he went more than two innings.

-Bobby Abreu has four strikeouts this series, which is 36.4 percent of his plate appearances. During the regular season, only 16.8 percent of his plate appearances resulted in strikeouts.

-The Yankees have won their first five playoff games for the first time since 1999 which was the last time it was done in the AL. The only AL team to open postseason play with six straight wins was the 1970 Baltimore Orioles.

-There were 111 plate appearances in this game and 13 pitchers threw 432 pitches.

It's pretty much a lock that the Yankees will win the World Series

Lots of unusual and unpredictable errors for our Yankee infielders ! .
I would guess the wet field conditions had to have contributed to these.

Also, one helluva call by that 2nd base umpire,
the Angel SS ( or was it their 2nd baseman ? )
clearly went through all the motions but his feet never touched the bag trying to turn that double play.
nice call
