2009 MLB Playoffs: ALCS - New York Yankees vs LA Angels - Game 2: A-Rod Hits Game Tying Home Run & Maicer Izturis Makes Horrible Throw (Highlights)

2009 MLB Playoffs: ALCS - New York Yankees vs LA Angels - Game 2

This was a great postseason game that had a lot of mistakes in it but none was bigger than the boneheaded play by Maicer Izturis in the 13th inning. With the ball hit well to his left, he should have just thrown to first and got the easy out. Even if he makes a great throw to second, he would have had no chance to turn two with Melky running. Get the out at first and it would have been 2nd and 3rd with 2 outs.

That being said...I can't believe A-Rod came through AGAIN and it's pretty much official that you won't hear Yankee fans complaining about A-Rod anymore. The Yankees are still catching a lot of breaks and it looks like they are destined to at least reach the series.

In the NL, I'm not sure yet who I think will win between the Phillies & Dodgers, but I'm somewhat leaning towards the Phillies.
