Yankees lead the series 3 games to 1. Do they close it out tomorrow with Burnett going?
I think the Phillies will win tomorrow and then lose on Wednesday. I don't have much faith in Burnett having back-to-back solid games, but you never know.
Burnett on three days rest against a dialed in Cliffy Lee. I'm going to take the former Expo.
I'm gonna go against the grain and say that Lee gets rocked in the 4th inning and the Yanks miraculously hang on.

Even if Cliff Lee owns the Yankees in Game 5, he won't get to start Game 7 if it gets that far.
That's not as awful of a decision as Bob Melvin, down 3-0 in the NLCS, going with Micah Owings instead of Brandon Webb on short rest, but close.
Gotta go with Lee. Momentum is with the Yankees and Burnett pitched one hell of a game, but I have to think that with Lee well rested and a lineup who wants to give the hometown team one last win at home to see, that the Phillies force a game 6.

I can only pray that Burnett and Petitte are too worn down on short rest, otherwise it's done and over with, phillies just don't have the guns outside of Lee. I'll go with Philly if Lee can dominate.

A Canadian singing the US National Anthem? Something seems off about that...that and her "s's" sounding like "sh"...
Jeter grounded out to Utley to start the game. Damon singles.
Lee is making good pitches right now... really buckling down.

A-Rod doubles in Damon...1 - 0 already.
Not good enough though, ARod smacks it into the RF corner. 1-0 Yankees.
