November 1st @ The Phillies Plunking A-Rod

Title here says it all. And, according to my quick scan, the last time this happened was Game 5 of the 1995 World Series.

And, the last time a team lost Game 5 of a World Series, at home, after losing Game 4 and being down three games to one, was the 2000 World Series. And, in case you forgot, the Yankees won that one in five games. ;-)

    When was the last time a team had to do it against Cliff Lee?

    @ yankees27th:
    Al Leiter in 2000 was just as good as Cliff Lee in 2009.

    @ Steve Lombardi:
    Al Leiter in Game 5 of 2000 was amazing. He was operating on fumes at that point but he battled the hell out of the Yanks. I really gained a lot of respect for him on that night.

    @ MJ:
    Didn’t Leiter throw around 140 pitches that night?
