Really, who could argue that the Yankees were the best baseball team for the past five months (they went 76-30, a .717 winning percentage, and never faced a crisis game), and that there was no way the Phillies were going to beat them with only one pitcher, Cliff Lee, who could hold them down. I liked what Hank Steinbrenner said in the winning clubhouse about how the front office viewed the team back in spring training: "We knew we had the best team in baseball."
