CALM CLIFF DOMINATES IN BRONX
PHILLIES TAKE GAME 1 BEHIND UTLEY'S TWO HOME RUNS
The first World Series game played at the new Yankee Stadium was turned into a somber affair by Philadelphia Phillies left-hander Cliff Lee. Lee gave the crowd of 50,207 little to cheer about while leading the 2008 World Series champions to a victory over the New York Yankees in the first game of the 2009 Fall Classic. The only noise coming from the stands Wednesday was from the quick-traveled Phillies fans scattered in full force. Lee's postseason dominance and Chase Utley's two home runs were enough to sink the Bronx Bombers, shutting them out until the ninth out with a complete game, 6-1, masterful gem.
