Tonight is the sixth, and possibly last, game of the 2009 World Series. With the Yankees leading the series 3 games to the Phillies' two, Andy Pettitte has a chance to secure the Yankees 27th world championship.
And, as always, there is some drama. Pettite's coming off of only 3 days rest. Though it may not seem like a huge factor given how we're used to having pitchers going out on truncated schedules in the post-season, it's a bit worrisome when you compare the fact Phillies pitcher Pedro Martinez is coming off of five.
Will it make a huge difference? We'll see.
If Pettitte pitches well, everyone will be blabbing about how it was such a great managerial decision despite the risks and how awesome Yankees are. If he pitches poorly, everyone will be blabbing about how it was such a blunderous managerial decision in face of the risks but still how awesome the Yankees are.
Though my money's on the Phillies to win tonight, I'm hoping Pettitte pitches well, but the Yankee lose anyway. That way, we all get a game 7 and elongate the season just one more night before having to wait until next spring for baseball's return.
No hard feelings Andy, there's still much love for you in H-Town.
