Close game that was very well pitched until the end. Chicago's Paul Konerko singled with 2 outs in the ninth of Trevor Hoffman to ignite a two run rally that allowed the AL to take the lead.
NY Wankees' reliever Mariano Rivera came on to close the game. Carlos Beltran reached on an error to the 3rd baseman to add some drama then Rivera proceeded to induce a ground out to the Home Run Derby winner Ryan Howard then popped up Milwaukee's Carlos Lee to the second baseman Michael Young to end it.
Game was played in less than 3 hours which is amazing given all the commercial breaks.

Another 9th inning 2 out noone on rally with the star closer on the mound sinks Garner. It happened last week with against the Cards.

The pitching in this game was amazing. Lot's of new faces this year which was great to see.

So I guess this means the World Champion Chicago White Sox will have home field advantage during the Series.

Such is life. I hope the New York Metropolitans win it all in a short series at Shea.

Garner should have saved Turnbow for the 9th inning.
Hoffman was not impressive at all.

Um, excuse me, but you wouldn't happen to be a Nats fan would you? Nats is a good nickname for a team who's legacy is the size of a Nat's ass, BTW. Seeing that the
Yankees
have won 26 world titles in their illustrious history, compared to how many for your team?

Except that they have to beat the Tigers to do that, and they won't.

Sheesh! My Angels gave up on him and Eck. no wonder we're in the cellar.
But I'm holding out and Vlad went bomb, so that was a plus.
