Phils Fans Live Another Day; Yanks Fans Blame Pitching

It’s a good night in Philly because the Phillies faithful didn’t have to watch a Yankee celebration on their field. Instead they live on to fight another day and The Good Phight couldn’t be happier. The Good Phight also questions some of Charlie Manuel’s decision-making in this game, including pulling Shane Victorino.

On the Yankee side of the equation, the fans pointing this loss squarely on A.J. Burnett and the pitchers since the Yankee offense finally solved the riddle of Cliff Lee.

So it comes down to Andy Pettitte against Pedro Martinez in the Bronx. There’s some veteran mileage in those arms and I imagine most managers wouldn’t mind either one toeing the slab for a must-win game.
