Comments on: Can Cliff Lee save the Phillies’ season? http://www.scoresreport.com/2009/11/02/can-cliff-lee-save-phillies%e2%80%99-season/ The National Sports Blog Fri, 17 Feb 2012 19:52:54 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.2 By: Yankee II http://www.scoresreport.com/2009/11/02/can-cliff-lee-save-phillies%e2%80%99-season/#comment-441726 Yankee II Mon, 02 Nov 2009 21:49:50 +0000 http://www.scoresreport.com/?p=28083#comment-441726 I think you have a good point. This is the second time around for the Yankees to see Lee, the first time was openning night, nasty weather and everybody all geeked up. That was a week ago and they have settled down which could mean trouble for Lee...at least I hope it does. On the other hand, I expect Burnett to settle down and avoid the early, big inning. This is where he gets hurt. Also note that they can't jam A-Rod inside for fear of hitting him. They messed up by hitting him 3 times. No matter what happens tonight, the Phillys have a rough road ahead of them. I think you have a good point.
