Martinez to start World Series Game 2 for Phillies

By Associated Press

Pedro Martinez is scheduled to start for the
Philadelphia Phillies in Game 2 of the World Series on Thursday
night at Yankee Stadium.

The 38-year-old Martinez has a long history of memorable moments
against the New York Yankees from his days with the Boston Red Sox.
The right-hander, signed by the Phillies in mid-July after he sat
out the first half of the season, also spent 2005-08 in New York
pitching for the Mets.

Cliff Lee will start Game 1 on Wednesday night for Philadelphia.
Cole Hamels, last year's World Series MVP, gets the ball in Game 3
at home.

CC Sabathia, A.J. Burnett and Andy Pettitte will start the first
three games for New York, but manager Joe Girardi on Tuesday would
not reveal his pitching plans beyond that.
