Yankees make the World Series

Unfortunately for Red Sox Nation, the New York Yankees have again made the World Series. They will play the Philadelphia Phillies who attempting to create a dynasty wih back to back World Series victories. The Yanks are into the Fall Classic for the first time since 2003 when they lost to the Florida Marlins.

One would expect the Yankees to beat the Phillies as the American League has won 61 of 104 World Series. As 8/15 favourites the Yankees have home field advantage and great lineup, their power looks as if it can take it down.

The Phillies though should not be underestimated. Ryan Howard is in devastating form and their lineup should not overwhelmed against a good New York pitching staff including a dominant ace in CC Sabathia.

Now lets hope for Red Sox Nation, the Phillies can start well on October 28th at Yankees Stadium.
