Rain, Rain.. GO AWAY!

Last night's game was nothing like what we all expected was it? I was expecting a long drawned out pitchers duel.  That is not what we got, not even that entire inning we did get to see.  I didn't think that Verlander was pitching his best game, which is one of the main reasons why I was so mad when they called the game, but I wasn't mad to see Joe Torre's face, I still miss him, his face just reminds me of all those fabulous, glorious Yankee years.  Okay, I am definetly going off subject here.  I am going to start this blog with a HUGE complain.  TBS didn't show the first pitch.  The moment I found that Mo pitching to Posada was going to be the first pitch, I couldn't wait to see it, I even got a little emotional, us fans have been looking foward to that moment all year long, and we didn't even get to see it, they showed the first pitch for the other game, why didn't we get to see ours?!?!?! That made me a little sad, I wanted to see it! Maybe it was a good thing they didn't show it though, I would've probably cried all night long afterwards, my eyes got even watery when I found out that's what the first pitch was, here's a picture in case you didn't get to see it:

Well with the rain, Verlander and Sabathia are forced to not be able to finish their game, which isn't very good news for the Tigers, since Verlander is their best pitcher, Yankees still have a few options, Girardi stated that he would Start Nova today, to finish game 1, and have Garcia pitch game 2 Sunday and after that: "We'll see".  Meanwhile the Tigers have already announced they will be bringing Verlander back Monday night for game 3 in Detroit, on short, very short rest.  A lot of fans are wondering if the Yankees will be bringing Sabathia out again Monday, but we'll have to wait and see what happens, I (just my personal opinion, don't flip) think that if we have a 2-0 lead on Monday night, Yankees shouldnt use Sabathia on short rest, besides, Verlander was not really pitching all that great last night, the Yankees shouldn't be worried or intimidated by him, Girardi did mention using Burnett as a started, guess we all are gonna have to wait and see how it all plays out, but for now let's hope the rain stays away and LET'S GO YANKEES!!!!
