World Series
Yankees v. Phillies
Game 1 Recap:
Phillies 6, Yankees 1
Cliff Lee dominated while Chase Utley added two homeruns as the Phillies took game 1 of the 2009 World Series. Lee opened the game with a strike out of Derek Jeter - who ironically was the only Yankee able to get anything going against the 2008 Cy Young Award winner, going 3-for-4 on the night – and then finished off the night striking out Alex Rodriguez and then Jorge Posada to close out the win.
WP: Cliff Lee (1-0) LP: CC Sabathia (0-1)
Phillies Lead Series 1-0
Next Game: Thursday, October 29 at 7:57 PM on FOX
News&Notes: Was it just me, or was the strike zone a bit iffy last night…Chase Utley has set a postseason record for reaching base safely in 26 straight playoff games…Along with all the celebs (Alec Baldwin, Loren Michaels, Jeff Gordon, Mark Messier…) and the first ladies (Michelle Obama and Jill Biden) last night, George Steinbrenner was also in attendance…Pedro Martinez was a wealth of information during Wednesday’s press conference. Apparently at times, he’s the most influential person at Yankee Stadium and he’s sorry he drop kicked Don Zimmer…The Jay-Z and Alicia Keys performance was postponed to Game 2 due to the crappy weather.
