The Official World Series Game 3 Thread
 

is everyone just expecting that the yanks and roger clemens will win this one?

Go Dbacks :D

Probably. If I were the D-Backs I'd be trying to see as many pitches as possible tonight and make Clemens work. If the Yanks don't pull too far out in front, they can get a big pitch count for Clemens. They don't have a great chance of winning (but they do have a chance), but they should try to get something out of it.

you know.. i hadnt really even thought about the idea that arizona could win this game tonight.. i think i have just been assuming that new york will win it..
i think new york probably will take it, but arizona still has the momentum

I think Arizona can make it 3-0, myself... we'll see!

oh, was that tonight?

with all this Jordan hoopla ... almost forgot

which game do you think is getting more excitement in new york tonight?

The Jordan game?

Why wasn't Paul O'Niel wearing a FDNY or NYPD hat? All the other Yankees were.

Based on hats, coats and assorted crap as I carved my way through NYC today, definitely the World Series.

Do you think Roger Clemens will be throwing any splintered bats in this World Series?

I hope he gets shelled. :D

idiot.



him, not you.

first two batters reach base.. one on an error, one on a walk

one of the batters was picked off..

it could be a long night for clemens if he has to throw alot of pitches early

one runner picked off.. one runner caught trying to steal

17 pitches.. if they wanted to run up his pitch count, they really should have been safer on the bases..

Is there any type of "internet streaming video feed"?

Don't feel like going downstairs, and my wireless laptop isn't quite set up yet...

Hahahahaharotfl You have such a rich database of insults.-rolleyes-

You'd think so. Of course, they might not be thinking about it. That was just this man's opinion. I'm not a baseball manager, I just play one on the internet.

wow.. jeter is in one huge slump.. whats that, 2 for his last 25 or so?

Bah! Gave it a ride.

Oh well.

Insult? :confused:

If I wanted to insult the guy, I'd go into a full diatribe on how he thought the splintered bat was actually a ball. In which case, he should have been throwing the splintered bat to first base. And I would also go into his headhunting history.

Personally, I don't like the guy. And I want to see the Yankees lose. It's time for another team to buy the World Series Championship. -ptth-

great catch finley ...

well.. both teams got a couple runners on base

and both came up empty.. scoreless after 1


oh yea.. one thing that has bothered me..

why is clemens the game 3 starter?? hasnt he been the yankee ace all season long.. so why hold him until game 3? dont like his chance against schilling or johnson?
sure, the lets him play in the first game in new york.. but that limits him to at most 2 appearances

He pinched his hammy and needs the extra rest.

(1) hamstring injury ... game 3 means more rest since last time out ...
(2) they don't want him to bat ... added pressure (aka he's a *****) ...

it took anderson 22 pitches to get through the 1st.. could be a long night for him as well

Good tight game thus far(only 2nd innning I know)..

Dbacks look confident however

Jorge has left the building!

It was bound to happen. Someone hit a homerun off of Anderson.

1-0 Yankees

another 25 pitches for anderson that inning.. thats 47 after 2 innings.. at that rate.. he wont make it through much more then 4 innings

arizona ties it at 1 with a matt williams sac fly in the top of the 4th

whew...

Crazy foul ball play there...

Tied at 1 after 5. Both pitchers pitching well. Anderson up to 94 pitches.

still tied at 1 after 5 innings

pitch count:
clemens: 73
anderson: 94

anderson's night should be just about over.. clemens should have a couple more innings in him

Damn...Shane Matthews made a great catch to end a 2-out rally. :(

arizona has 3 errors, and several more that could be considered errors.. pretty ugly game..
yet they are only down 1 run?

hit it at justice!! that should be good for a double :D

Wrong sport! rotfl Shane Matthews is the QB for the Bears. I think you're talking about Shane Spencer.

The Yanks can have this game. I doubt they can get pass Schilling and Johnson in game 4 or 5.
