You know it's a big deal when they put a MLB liveblog on the Manchester Guardian homepage. Not Manchester, CT or NH... Manchester England where the Gallagher boys (Noel and Liam) are from. (Though I suppose it might have been a US only homepage).

Great night. Unfortunately, I'm on the wrong side of this.

Nothing more to say that such a story line couldn't be scripted so well. It appears that Francona is now toast. Maddon is probably the coach of the year. And the Girardi probably just jinxed the Yankees by getting fancy and ultimately playing 1.5 games rather than 1 while lowering team morale. Blowing a 7 run lead will definitely stick in the back of your mind during the playoffs.

It will be interesting to see who goes to the World Series. It could be anyone at this point.

yanks will not feel any effects of 2night, they played the AA team for most of the night. the starters played like 5 innings. no one important pitched...

Not as much as blowing the biggest September lead in history. Cause the Yankees were really worried about winning this game.

Im pretty sure Mariano, Soriano,and Robertson wont be used during the playoffs, maybe Girardi will pull all his starters as well.

Say what you will - but the Yankees have had great teams go out in the first round.

^ no doubt, but they make it every year.

no one expected anything out of the yankees this year the Sox on the other hand are the team who had all the expectations, I am nervous of facing Detroit if they do beat the Yankees I will route for them to win it all
