Pedro comes up short against Yankees
NEW YORK (AP)—Pedro Martinez(notes) slowly walked off the mound, listening to thetaunts from the Bronx crowd. He looked skyward to acknowledge his late father,then smiled at the screaming fans.
Looking for one more big win in a spectacular career, Martinez couldn’t sendthe Philadelphia Phillies home with a commanding 2-0 lead over the New YorkYankees in the World Series.
Martinez allowed three runs and six hits in six-plus innings, striking outeight in a 3-1 loss in Game 2 Thursday night.
For 5 2-3 innings, vintage Pedro was on display—minus the overpoweringfastball of his heyday. Instead, he baffled the Yankees with offspeed pitchesand sneaky fastballs.

But with two outs in the sixth, Martinez got burned on a 1-2 pitch. He threwa slow curve out of the strike zone that Hideki Matsui(notes) reached down and drove afew rows deep into the right-field seats to give the Yankees a 2-1 lead. The320-foot homer—an out in most ballparks—was a deflating blow for Martinez.
The three-time Cy Young Award winner came out for the seventh afterconvincing manager Charlie Manuel he felt fine, despite nearing 100 pitches.Martinez gave up consecutive singles to Jerry Hairston Jr.(notes) and Melky Cabrera(notes)before calling it a night.
Manuel’s decision to start Martinez over Cole Hamels(notes), last year’s WorldSeries and NLCS MVP, in Game 2 was intensely scrutinized. But Hamels hasstruggled this postseason and Martinez threw seven scoreless innings in his onlystart at Los Angeles in the NLCS.
For Manuel, it was a no-brainer. Hamels pitches better at home, and Martinezhas plenty of experience pitching against the Yankees from his Boston Red Soxdays. The familiar chants of “Who’s Your Daddy?” began once Martinez startedstretching in the outfield 30 minutes before game time.
The reference was to a Martinez quote from 2004. Frustrated after anotherloss to New York, the pitcher said: “I just tip my hat and call the Yankees mydaddy.”
Making his first start at New York’s new billion-dollar ballpark, Martineznearly silenced the hecklers as he kept the Yankees’ sluggers off-balance.
Martinez struck out Derek Jeter(notes) and Johnny Damon(notes) to start the game andfanned Alex Rodriguez(notes) twice. Using his guile, he froze Jeter on a quick-pitchfastball in the third.
Martinez made one mistake in the fourth, and Mark Teixeira(notes) didn’t miss it.Teixeira ripped a solo homer a long way out to right-center to tie the game at1.
Martinez spent the first half of the year home in the Dominican Republic. Hesigned a one-year deal with the Phillies during the All-Star break for aprorated share of $2 million plus incentives, and went 5-1 with a 3.63 ERA innine starts down the stretch.
Martinez fell to 12-14 in 39 career games against the Yankees, counting thepostseason. He hadn’t faced New York in the playoffs since he pitched a shakyinning in Boston’s 10-3 victory in Game 7 of the 2004 ALCS.
