Only Don Larsen was better than Roy Halladay was tonight.  With all due respects to Bill Bevens, Cookie Lavagetto, and 1947...history was made tonight!  And I enjoyed my evening with my favorite provider, watched our Yankees come from behind and win...Granderson two run triple, and Tex's two-runner the following inning.  Oh, what a night!

It was a good game , good pitching and hitting, many contributed to the win.

Oh and the YANKS are such good sports they gave the twins 4 outs in the bottom of the 9th.


Thank You
2010 = 28

Only 4 balls were hit out of the infield, a total of 25 pitches were balls, and Halladay is the first pitcher in the post-season to get more hits himself (1) than he gave up (0). And he had first-pitch strikes on 25 out of 28 hitters.

Agreed. He had command of every one of his pitches and they literally didn't have a prayer of getting a hit off of him unless it was a little flair, blooper or gork. Amazing performance!

Interesting stat--"got more hits than he gave up".  The NL plays real baseball rather than using the DH.

So much for Post-Season inexperience. That was his first playoff appearance ever. Not a bad debut.
