    ? feliciano came in to replace maine and got out his one lefty, then was replaced by bradford.

    and there is no way feliciano would start, the only reliever who willy would ever start is oliver, and even him not really, won't happen.

    I missed the Feliciano appearance....I saw Bradford

    yeah I agree Darren Oliver can't see the light of day unless its in a mop up role

    The execution on that double out at the plate was definitely a thing of beauty....those were 2 great throws....the one from valentin brought a tear to my eye....absolutely perfect

    I am a Delgado fan, so it was nice to see him kill today in his very first post season game....dude is focused

    I am a tad bit worried about Wagner...even as an Astro when he was arguably even more dominant, I never felt totally comfortable when it came playoff time....and he didn't look great today...but he got the job done....against the Yanks it may end up being a different outcome

    I say we just call off the rest of the playoffs and just let the Mets and Yanks beat the crap out of each other's pitchers

    I feel bad for Tori Hunter....one of the great guys in the game...and arguably the best center fielder in all of baseball

    today's NYC people on the street yankee/met caps/t-shirts worn ratio = 5/4

    when you account for all the dumb tourists who favor the yanquis, the ratio is more like 1/1. after the world series it will be like '86, and ny will be a met town again, as god intended.

    Leyland better put Zumaya in for 2 innings as his very first reliever to keep this score in check. Otherwise, you might as well drag your happy asses home down 2-0. We shall see. He's not the smartest manager in the world.

    Zumaya vs. this Yankee lineup

    This is most fun!

    Dude is special.

    The only problem is Mr. Jones will be coming in the 9th only to lose the game. Too bad the manager won't have the balls to pitch Zumaya 3 innings for the save.

    That last pitch was 103 mph with movement. And that's using the opposing ballpark's radar gun. Is that legal? Damn.

    Zumaya exits with only 21 pitches thrown.
