World Series Game 6 - "Tex Message"

GAME 6 - Yankee Stadium
C.Lee vs Burnett
Yankees 7, Phillies 4


Game six will go down in Yankee lore as Mark Teixeira (3-3) day.  New York's slick fielding 1st baseman sent two "Tex Messages" deep into the Bronx night to knock in 4.  The Bombers scored 7 times and chased Cliff Lee (7 runs 5.2 IP) once again from the hill.  Placido Polanco and Raul Ibanez each had 3 hit days in a losing effor.  A.J. Burnett (6IP/2ER) fanned 5 and finally came up big in a pressure situation, with the Bombers back up against the wall needing to stave off elimination.  The Phightin's most definitely missed Utley in the lineup and hope he can make it back for tomorrow's decisive game seven.
Series tied 2-2
