Jeff Mathis Walk Off Double Beats Yankees in Extra Innings

Final Score in 11 Innings in Los Angeles of Anaheim: Angels 5, Yankees 4
A four hour plus game of extended action and intrigue ended on a booming hit and an even quicker exit from the national broadcasters terrified of interviewing players they know nothing about. Despite being the most dramatic postseason moment yet, FOX coverage of the game quickly split because Derek Jeter's jock did not need washing.
A grueling battle of men left on base, baserunning miscues, and lost opportunities, solo power shots and clutch hits was not wasted this time. The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim got a 2-out walk-off double in extra innings by their late-inning substitute catcher to drive in their platooning 2Bman who was sent to the minors mid-season.
In postgame comments, Yankee skipper Joe Girardi said he could not stretch out über-closer Mariano Rivera more than one inning and than stupidly replaced a no-name reliever (Hummerson? Roberta Smith? Fox broadcasters were so excited to go to a commercial for more money to send Rupert Murdoch's way that they barely discussed anything but the genius of the Yankee manager) in the 11th with 2 outs for Alfredo Aceves. He gave up a base hit to Howie Kendrick. that left Howie a double shy of the cycle and Jeff Mathis complied with booming walk-off double to the base of Left Field wall.
There were many moments in the game where the Angels tried to hand the Yankees the game. Call it a tightrope, call it fate, the Mathis double saved many many goats in red from being forever remembered a braying in the hay field. Kevin Jepsen let the Yankees tie the game with a solo HR to Jorge Posada on a pitch that the average little leaguer would have hit over the centerfield wall. Bobby Abreu turned a leadoff double turn into a leadoff out as he was picked off trying ot get back to 2nd after deciding not to stretch it into a triple. Even worse than the out it caused, it allowed Fox to slobber love drool over Jeter for a routine pick-off - in fact Melky Cabrera's great fielding was ignored in order for Fox to lovingly chew Jeter's sack once again.
All of the Yankee runs were solo homers. But no way this overpaid lineup invests in better living thru chemistry. No way, you can bet the Brooklyn bridge you just bought from Tooth Fairy Realty on it.

There are regular season heroes, like Torii, who mash and grind and get through their demons to get you there. Then there are post-season heroes… who can be anyone. I love Mathis, but I really wish he’d start hitting the ball in the regular season.

hire a someone to hypnotize him into thinking the whole game is in extra innings. then he’ll hit like panther all the time. lol

And throw runners out at second like he did Brett Gardner today.
That was other worldly for Mathis to hit that with pinpoint accuracy.

Not otherworldly. Great, and so well needed, and something that we haven’t had a lot of this year, even on pitchouts.

For my part, even if Mathis gets to stand on the mound and throw to 2B,
…NOT sailing the ball into CF under duress IS otherworldy. And highly appreciated.

I have already played hooky in order to buy tickets to the ALDS game, and I'm out of time for the mid-term.
I arranged with the teacher last week to turn the radio to the game. Jeez, K-EARTH just has a 3-hour loop and she would rather hear that than our Angels? This is about 3 miles from the stadium, at Santa Ana College, and she is supposedly an Angels fan.

I totally agreed with that decision, no willits needed. keep mathis in the game.

They don't have a clue.
They see “catcher” on base, and assume he’s slow. It could have been Craig Biggio, Jason Kendall, or B.J. Surhoff in their catching primes and they would have been ragging for the lack of a pinch runner. Buck and McCarver are the most inept broadcasters this side of Joe Morgan.

Vald-i hope that HR kickstarts the rest of teh series for him. impacts the 3 and 5 hitters in the lineup. looking at Torii and K-Mo. cmon fellas
HK-awesome. he looks soo confidant up there swingin. totally different from earlier in the season.

There was electricity in the park at that point.
The Rally Monkey made an appearance, if I remember correctly, and then he fouled off a couple of pitches — everyone could do that math, a blast in that spot ties the game that we had been losing from the first batter. I know I was going wild with my Thunder Stix and Rory (or was it Terry?) said that the crowd could feel that something big was going to happen. Boy was that a perfect call. I had an in-ear noise canceling headphone in left left ear, listening to the roar of the crowd in my right ear, and when he hit it I sprung up and my headphone came out of my left ear and I felt dizzy with the full force of the noise and the magnitude of the hit, and how this was quite possibly the best game I’d ever attended. I had to watch Rivera’s at bat through my Thunder Stix as I choked up, standing in V522, Row A, Seat 11 — in other words, Cloud 9. When I later heard the replay of the radio call of the Home Run, I thought it couldn’t have been described any better.

Better than theirs, which is supposed to be their HUGE advantage in the matchups. And Girardi is shredding theirs, anyway.

“The bottom line of this thing is we lost,” Rivera said. “It doesn’t matter what we did or what I did. It doesn’t matter. We lost.”

he has had some good starts on 3 days rest but
He has admitted that due to pitching on 3 days rest he will not have his best fastball and have to rely on his control. He thinks this is an advantage but we will have to see it it is. Also he did wear out on his post season 3 day rest appearance. Granted this year is much different I still have a good feeling about it for us.

Who else needs to wake up
I think our sleeping giant is starting to wake. Figgy had some good at bats, Vlad had a huge homer, Abreau hit but needs to practice on base running, Howie had a huge game, Matthis was just amazing, and I know Torri is still dead in offense. Who else. And does someone know what the line up will most likely look like and not what you would want it to be.
by RedAces on Oct 19, 2009 10:20 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
Figgy was still horrible, and left 4 on base.
He did have a good hit, but he needs to be left out of the lineup (not gonna change this stance until he has a spectacular game… granted i listened to the game on the radio and didnt get a good feel of how he did at the plate, but his inability to get the ball out of the infield when runners were on 1st and 3rd is pitiful, and checking the box score, his production looked similar to saturdays game).
Somebody that needs to STEP THE FUCK UP is juan rivera. I dont know what that guy is doing out there, besides GIDP and hitting it to johnny damon. I say put GMJ in there, he can’t do much worse, and recently he has been MR CLUTCH with RISP..yeah he’s vulnerable to the strike out, but dude takes too much flack on HH, and everyone seems to forget that rivera has been laying an egg this post season.

3 hits I think
by figgifig on Oct 20, 2009 1:53 AM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I have not read any of the above
Just wanted to add my two cents. On 23 July 2008 Roger and I saw Jeff Mathis hit a grand slam and have six rbi in a 14-11 win over Cleveland. However, years down the road when Mathis’ grandkids ask him about his favorite game Jeff no doubt will answer 2009 ALCS Game 3. I have been to 107 MLB games this season. This afternoon’s game was the BEST of the year. It will be very difficult (not impossible) to top.
Thinking of Angel catchers past, back on 14 June 1967 I saw Bob Rodgers have a walk-off 2-run single against Cleveland in a 3-2 Halos win. Earlier Rodgers hit a solo home run. It was Playboy Bunny night at the Big A. Rodgers heroics probably did not amount to much with the Bunnies because he was already married. Jeff Mathis’ game today was better than Bob Rodgers Playboy Bunny game in 1967!
All along I have figured the Angels to win all three games in Anaheim against the Yanks. We only have to win one game in New York. My fearless forecast is for the Angels to win four in a row. Kudos to Howie Kendrick today. He came in second in my player of the game vote. Any game in which you score the winning run is a good game.

To back up your statement about this being the best day of his career.
He also had, within the screaming crowd of 44,911 fans at Angel Stadium, two very special people on hand to witness the magic moment. After his teammates mobbed him and his manager hugged him, Mathis pointed to his mother, Bonnie, and his grandmother, Judy Revell, who were in attendance.
“They’ve been with me the whole postseason,” Mathis said. “They were able to experience that with us in Boston. For them to be here for this is awesome.”
Who would have thought that the big, game-deciding hit the Angels had been waiting for all series would come from Mathis?
That is, of course, the beauty of postseason baseball. And on Monday, life was beautiful for Mathis and his teammates.
“It’s the biggest hit of my life,” he said. "It’s a pretty good feeling.

You too can be a baseball media analyst! Just don't allow your need to be wrong in public to get in the way of your ignorance.

I witnessed one of the Angels' greatest comeback feats ever today, the entire stadium went bananas.

I am so fucking happy with tonight's game.
Basically what the angels did tonight was said to the Yankees and all their fans “nobody comes in to our house and pushes us around”. Fuck the Yankees. The Angels spend more than 50% less on players than the Yankees do. However, the Yankees still fail to dominate the Angels. The Angels play with heart and that is something the Yankees do not have. All the Angels needed was this one win and their confidence and bats will awaken . Brian Fuentes and Ervin Santana seriously scare me. They suck and do not deserve to play.

Minus the IBB, Fuentes went 1-2-3

No Vlad? Honestly?
Your choices are Mathis, Howie, and…Old Man Oliver? He’s been great, but Vlad changed the tone of the series.
