Yankee Stadium, Bronx, NY
It wasn't Pedro's game, and it wasn't Andy's game...it wasn't even A-Rod's game. Ryan Howard finally breaks out of his World Series slump with a 2-run jack to left-center field. The 'big guy' was Godzilla, himself, Hideki Matsui.
PHI 3 6 0
NYY 7 8 0
Just one hit short of hitting for the cycle (something that hasn't happened in a World Series yet), Matsui lands 6 RBIs and ties Bobby Richardson's 1960 WS record...for the Yankees.
Being a Japanese baseball fan, it was great to see the ol' boy rip a few, even if it was for the Yankees.
Now the lights have dimmed, Damon and Matsui are both free agents and the Yanks can't keep them both.
Yankees win the Series 4-2.
