Marlins Win

This is why I don't go to bed when the World Series is on. Another great game by a starter, this time by Brad Penny. The early departure of Wells set off a series of events that put the Yankees down early. Sort of ironic, given Wells comments about Clemens workout regimen yesterday:


"Just goes to show you don't need to bust your (butt) every day to be successful. Wow. I was wondering when that was going to come out. ... I'll leave the working and conditioning to those guys forever. They can write a book and do videos. They can make money on that, on how to last 20 years in the big leagues by conditioning. I'll write, 'How Not to Work Out.'"

The Marlins, with this win, are in a great position to win the series. If I were them, I'd give Beckett his proper rest and have him pitch on Sunday. Start Redman on Saturday; maybe the Marlins will get lucky. If not, they'll have their best pitcher ready and rested for game 7.
