After last night’s 3-1 loss to the Yankees which evened the series at one game apiece, Jimmy Rollins was asked what he thought of the supposed hostile crowd at Yankee Stadium (ya know, if they stick around for the whole thing) and you can judge for yourself, but it doesn’t sound like he was too [...]

A.J. Burnett walks Jimmy Rollins with one out in the third, and after getting Victorino on a weak grounder with Rollins running, Burnett pitches Utley very carefully, and end up intentionally walking him. I get the feeling the Yankees would rather face Howard than Utley.
Update: It works as Howard strikes out swinging to end [...]

We predicted the Phillies sweep the Yankees if Philly plays Madonna songs for Arod.
Apparently "From Two Time Zones Away" didn't agree:

Phillies short stop and loudmouth Jimmy Rollins was on "The Jay Leno Show" last night and was asked about the upcoming series, here's what he had to say: "Of course we're gonna win.

If you asked a typical Met fan to list his three most hated teams, I'm willing to bet that 90% of those lists would include both the Phillies and the Yankees. So now that the 2009 World Series includes both teams, which team shall the angry bitter Met fan pull for? The reason behind the hatred for the Phillies is obvious. They have been division rivals with the Phillies since...

NEW YORK -- The fabulous Phillies were unfazed by their Game 2 defeat that left the World Series even. This team does not lack confidence.

There's been quite a to-do in the Philly blogosphere about the empty seats at Yankee Stadium the past two nights. And why not? The Stadium was only 96% full on Wednesday night, and some fans spent part of the night retreating under cover in the mist. With a five run deficit at a late hour in the ninth, some folks simply got up and headed for the open concourses to watch the last...
