Rodriguez, Yankees beat Phils for 3-1 Series edge
PHILADELPHIA ? Alex Rodriguez waited all game long for this hit. Heck,
he waited his whole life. Rodriguez delivered the biggest hit of his
career, a go-ahead, two-out double in the ninth inning off Brad Lidge
and the New York Yankees took advantage of Johnny Damon's daring dash to
beat the Philadelphia Phillies 7-4 on Sunday night for a 3-1 lead in the
World Series.
Derek Jeter came through again and Mariano Rivera finished it off as the
Yankees moved within one win of that elusive 27th championship and first
since 2000.
Rodriguez could really savor this victory ? seething after again being
hit by a pitch, he struck back with his potent black bat.
"There's no question ? I've never had a bigger hit," Rodriguez said.
The Yankees will try to close out the defending champions Monday night
when A.J. Burnett faces October ace Cliff Lee.
Of the 42 teams to take a 3-1 lead in the World Series, 36 went on to
win the crown. The last club to overcome such a deficit was Kansas City
in 1985.

The Yanks aren't my team, but since my team ain't in the series, I'm
rooting for the Yanks.
I thought you hated sports. That's was the HK FAQ says.

That was last week, try to keep up...
I've stated any number of times here that the only pro team sport I like
is baseball, and I'm not that big a fan.
You could get a job at the ball game, picking up litter, and start to
pay off your hospital debt.
He'd have to be able to twist the cap off a beer or throw peanuts to
get hired at the ballpark. Plus, make change. Forget it.
Do you ever worry that Harry might make a sharp turn and bust your
nose right off?
