World Series

[Lionman]

I love baseball but I'm no Yankee fan. Although I do like a few players on their team, David Wells for one, who I learned last weekend on an interview on ESPN Radio loves to hunt. The Yankees probablyhave more talent, but the Marlins got there on determination and playing aggressive. By the way, I liked the song that was sung during the seventh inning stretch, "God Bless America".

Marlins win game one and take home field advantage away from the Yanks. Brad Penny, who had been miserable in the post season, holds NY to 2 runs.

 

Uggy Urbina pitched 1 1/3 innings in closing out the game...the Marlins may win in 6 games instead of 7.

Derek Jeter's salary is $15,600,000.00. The entire team salary of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays is $19,630,000. Where is the parity in Major League Baseball?

[Lionman]

Pedro Martinez also makes approx. $15.5 million a year. David Wells makes $3.6 million a year. I just can't see that much difference in their talent and success for that amount of money.

Did anyone notice that the cameras kept flashing shots of Steinbrenner when the Marlins scored tonight? Old George looked like he just ate a bad bratwurst!!

 

Go Fightin Fish!! Three down, one to go.....

I liked it when the cameras showed a shot of the sign that read, David vs Goliath. This is just the way that I had thought of this matchup. The salary of the Marlins is about 1/2 the salary of the Yankees. The Marlins are playing with determination, and a good ol desire to win. I think Mckeon, Marlins manager is doing a great job. The Braves could use a manager like him.

Game 6 is Saturday night, am I right?
