ROFL.

Beckett is going to get lit up now that the Yankees hitters have seen him.

Yankees in 7, the lucky Marlins can only be lucky to a certain extent.  They won't get past Pettite or Moose.

It's too bad Pro Player stadium is a football stadium, if it had been a normal baseball stadium, Bernie's hit woulda tied it up, and Bernie'd have 4 homers in the WS.

Oh well, no excuses -- losing Wells in the first inning hurt, but Torre made a mistake by putting Contreras in so early.  Shoulda asked Wells to stay out for an out, or maybe just 3-4 pitches and let Contreras get warm.

PS- What's with the Marlins bandwagon fans...?  I know of like 5 people who suddenly LOVE the Marlins and have "followed" them since the beginning.  I also noticed how 3 of the 5 are from Boston... hrm.

Your statements are foolish at best. Beckett has allowed 6 hits and 3 runs over his last 20.1 innings while striking out 24. If you think that he's going to "get lit up", you're on some sort of illicit substance. The only run he gave up the yankees was on a bases loaded walk and the only player who even got a hit off of him in game 3 was Jeter. Beckett threw a 3 hitter (all hits to Jeter) over 7.1 innings. As for the Marlins not getting past star pitching...dont' bet on it. Ask the cubs all about that. Prior and Wood, with no offense to Pettite and Mussina, are far more dominant this postseason. The hottest pitcher in baseball right now is Beckett anyway, without a doubt. Not to mention the marlins have Pavano for game 7 should they need him. Yankees couldn't seem to solve him in Game 4 and I wouldn't be against a repeat in Game 7...

As for my being a Marlins fan: I'm from Miami and I have been a Marlins fan since they were innaguarated. Not sure about anyone else on here or all of the fans you've heard about, but I'm a fan and I'm happy to say that. Say whatever you want.

*sigh* Not for nothing, when the yankees win, any yankee fans I know never bash the other team. The marlins won, they earned it, but I hope the marlin fans respect yankee fans.

we all know how yankees fans are known for being respectfull of other teams fans :blink:

Next year its the Phils all the way...no..really :p

    • Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations by Sayan Sen Microsoft releases new Windows Defender update packages very frequently to protect against various newly discovered malware. Once a while every three months or so, the company also pushes out these updates to Windows images (WIM and VHD) and ISOs, that are used to install Windows. Hence with the newest Windows 11 update available via the official MCT tool, you should get these definitions. This update package is necessary as a Windows installation image may contain old, outdated anti-malware definitions and software binaries. Aside from better security, these updates can also provide improved performance benefits in some cases. When a new Windows installation is set up, there may be a temporary security risk due to outdated Microsoft Defender protection in the OS installation images. This happens because the antimalware software included in these images might not be up to date. Thus Microsoft says that these updated definitions essentially help close this protection gap. Microsoft delivered the latest security definitions for Windows images via security intelligence update version 1.445.323.0. The Defender package version is also the same. It applies to Windows 11, Windows 10 ESU, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021, Win 10 Ent LTSC 2019, Win 10 Ent LTSB 2016, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2016. Microsoft writes: "This package updates the anti-malware client, anti-malware engine, and signature versions in the OS installation images to following versions: Platform version: 4.18.26040.7 Engine version: 1.1.26040.8 Security intelligence version: 1.447.236.0" From Microsoft's security bulletin, we learn that the security intelligence update version 1.447.236.0 was released early last month and adds threat detections for various malware like trojan, backdoor exploits, ransomware, stealers, AutoKMS, and more. For those wondering, the latest intelligence update is version 1.451.297.0 at the time of writing.
