Dodgers Even Series, Yankees Win First Game of Theirs

Baseball playoffs continued today as the Dodgers and the Phillies played a pitchers duel in LA. Pedro Martinez and Vicente Padilla both pitched an amazing game today. Pedro pitched 7 shut out innings while Padilla only allowed one run while striking out 6. I was proud of these pitchers as they were able to keep both of their teams in the game. However the Phillies allowed the go ahead run on a walk. A WALK!!! Horrible way to give up a game especially after Pedro's amazing start. The series is now tied 1-1 as they go back to Philadelphia.

The Angels and the Yankees would start their series in the Bronx despite the weather threat from mother nature. CC Sabathia had a good start allowing one run and striking out 7 in 8 innings. The Yankees did well against Lackey as they scored four runs off him. They would win 4-1. Yankees now have a one game lead as they look to return to the World Series. I hope the Angels pick it up. They need at least one win before going home to LA (Anaheim). Come on Angels please!!!
