B0

Weather Issues for Game 3

Weather Issues for Game 3 We've been here before. In fact, just over one year ago. Will Bud Selig pull the same crap Saturday night he pulled for Game 5 last year? If the weather's really as bad as it seems they're forecasting, here's hoping they call it early...

Yankees_v_mets_f7e0

Chase Utley Sets Post-Season Record for Consecutive Games on Base Lost in the hubbub of Cliff Lee's defensive wizardry (and I think he also pitched well, too, right?), Chase Utley's power, and the offense's never-let-up-ness was the fact that Utley set the record...
