Game One Nightmare in the Bronx
deepleftfield.com 11/1/2009 — I will try not to blow this out of proportion, THAT much. I know we were not a contender at all this season, nor were we some decent pitching away from being there. Well, maybe pitching was the difference…but still, I am trying to act as though us Indian fans are above blaming problems on ...
Phils-Yankees Game Four: Can history repeat itself for CC, Blanton?
feedproxy.google.com 11/2/2009 — The Eagles have already dispatched their half of the battle against New York, and now the Phillies simply have to the same. Tell me if any of this sounds familiar.

Charlie Manuel Hands the World Series to New York
mlbplayoffs2009.gearupforsports.com 11/2/2009 —
There’s been all kinds of speculation and controversy about Charlie Manuel starting #4 starter Joe Blanton instead of his ace, Cliff Lee, on three days rest. Let me put the argument to rest. Starting Blanton handed the World Series to the Yankees last night.
“You’re ...
Sabathia VS. Lee Game 1 Prediction
ltsports.net 10/28/2009 — With the opening game of the World Series just a few hours away, I felt it was the perfect time for a game 1 preview and prediction.
The Phillies are putting Cliff Lee on the hill, and the Yankees are going with CC Sabathia. This is a stupendous matchup for the first game of the series, as ...
Pitching Profile: Joe Blanton
itsaboutthemoney.net 11/1/2009 — Charlie Manuel must have absolutely no faith that Cliff Lee can perform on three days rest. Because if he thought he'd get even the 90% version of what we saw on Wednesday (both tonight and in a possible game seven) it'd look a thousand times better ...
2009 World Series Game 1 Pitching Match-up
athbaseball.com 10/28/2009 —
Both teams have had plenty of rest and have been able to set their rotations exactly how they want them, so it's the best against the best on the biggest stage; the way it should be.

That ball is going exactly where he wants it to. Because Cliff Lee is pitching it.
Was it just me, or was this the hardest Game One of a World Series to watch, ever?
I am twenty-four years old, and thus, I have spent the majority of my baseball-loving life watching tonight’s ...
Game 1: Battle of the Southpaws
morehardball.blogspot.com 10/27/2009 — With rain in the forecast, the thought that Game 1 of the World Series at the New Yankee Stadium could be rained out has entered the minds of baseball fans.

NY Post: Sports 11/1/2009
PHILADELPHIA -- Joe Blanton does not have the resume of CC Sabathia or Cliff Lee. There is no Cy Young Award on his mantle. He has never won 20 games, and no one is clamoring to see him on three days' rest.
But Phillies manager Charlie Manuel has f...
