    Moving up? Or moving out?

  2. 46fan October 28th, 2009 at 3:27 pm

    Moving up???? or Moving out – I’m about 30 miles north of the stadium and it’s pouring…..someone I just talked with is about 60 miles west of the stadium and the skies are clearing now….

    Weather.com says that it will just be cloudy for the rest of the evening.

    Sara: great minds think alike????? lol

  6. Mike Parch October 28th, 2009 at 3:28 pm

    It’s starting to clear up now here in Parsiappny!

  7. Jenn October 28th, 2009 at 3:29 pm

    When you say ‘moving up’, do you mean letting up? Looks like it is starting to clear up and all weather signs point to a game.

    Radar says rain should be gone around 5-5:30.

  9. Bill from NJ October 28th, 2009 at 3:30 pm

    Seems to be a window from 8-11pm to get this game in.

  10. chris October 28th, 2009 at 3:31 pm

    Does anyone know when Stubhub stops selling tickets to the game tonight?

  11. Uncle Ellsworth (much ado about nothing) October 28th, 2009 at 3:31 pm

    do the Yanks have those giant vacuums that suck up the outfield water?

  12. Josh from NC October 28th, 2009 at 3:31 pm

    im tired of days without baseball, they suck

  13. Jenn October 28th, 2009 at 3:31 pm

    2 hours prior, i believe stubhub sells up to.

  14. Sara October 28th, 2009 at 3:32 pm

    46fan you are correct! :-)

  15. tampayank October 28th, 2009 at 3:32 pm

    I can’t wait for Lidge to implode in the World Series…sorry if I’m testy…these national pundits got the blood flowing w/ the lack of respect for this Yankee team :)

  16. chris October 28th, 2009 at 3:32 pm

    So like 6pm? I was hoping I could get some tickets for Game 2 for around 250$ each but it doesnt seem to get much lower than $325.

    lets hope this happens to rollins:

    I’ll play

    What’s the occasion? I am flattered!

  20. DB October 28th, 2009 at 3:35 pm

    On the bright side, 15 years ago this game would have never been played because the field would have been to soggy.

    Nowadays, as long as the rain isn’t coming down on their head, play ball!

  21. JD October 28th, 2009 at 3:36 pm

    In Elizabeth NJ right now, it’s not raining at all & the couds are moving fast.

    starting to look good.

  22. The Ghost October 28th, 2009 at 3:36 pm

    Mitch Williams just called this year’s Phillies the best team he’s ever seen. Was he in a coma during 1998?

    Kind of a big game, no?

  24. Joe October 28th, 2009 at 3:38 pm

    So we all live in the new Seattle and don’t even know it. They better play that game tonight for my own sanity.

    86 Mets are better – to use a non Yankee example

  27. tampayank October 28th, 2009 at 3:39 pm

    no one is respecting the Yankees…..our guys will silence the critics….and I almost want to put money on Game 2 b/c I know Pedro will get rocked…he won’t pitch 5 full innings in Game 2

    I guess your’e not familiar with Wild Thing. (Williams)

  32. DB October 28th, 2009 at 3:41 pm

    The Ghost,

    He also made the prediction that Philly would beat them in 5. He was interviewed on the Boomer and Carton show yesterday and he referred to Philly as “we” 17 times.

    Carton called him out on it and called him a homer. funny stuff.

  33. hey kelvin says October 28th, 2009 at 3:42 pm

    If we have solid pitching, the Phillies will be silenced.

    To me the biggest Hurdle is taming the Phillies bats and making sure Hughes/AJ Burnett are pitching fine in this series.

    Our offense can work out the pitchers fine.

    Lets go Yankees!

  34. Gardner in CF October 28th, 2009 at 3:42 pm

    I crossed up my last 2… oops.

  35. Erica - always OPPC October 28th, 2009 at 3:43 pm

    new thread :arrow:

    No new line ups here!

  36. Laura - Bring on PHI! October 28th, 2009 at 3:44 pm

    I just saw another comparison where they rated Ruiz over Posada. I just find that mind boggling. Their offensive numbers aren’t even close. Posada has multiple WS rings and they think that Ruiz is better? Wow. Who have they been talking to? AJ Burnett? :P

  37. saucY October 28th, 2009 at 4:06 pm

    if that’s moving up, then i’m moving out…

  38. BC October 28th, 2009 at 8:42 pm

    it stopped

  39. BBFan October 28th, 2009 at 10:30 pm

    Testing…..
