FriarChick: is the game over?

YankeeGuy: more or less.

Yankee Guy: it's the top of the 9th, the yanks lead 2-1 and Mariano Rivera is pitching.

FriarChick: whatever.

YankeeGuy: just fanned Scott Hairston. One out.

FriarChick: WHATEVER!!!!

Mariano Rivera would go on to strike out the side, preserving the 2-1 lead and completing a three game sweep of the San Diego Padres. It would also be Mo's 20th save in 20 save opportunities.

Unlike, the first two games in which the Yankees offense averaged exactly eight runs per game, today's one run nail-biter was about pitching, defense and base running.
