New York Yankees Win Game Seven in 11th Inning!!!

Was that the greatest ALCS (American League Championship Series) EVER? I think so! It had the most drama ever in a series. It had harsh words. It had fists thrown. It had hit batters. It had two of the greatest pitchers of all time facing each other not once, but twice (Clemens and Martinez.) It had them both pitching one amazing game and both pitching one horrible game. It had the series tied twice 2-2 and 3-3. It had the Yankees down 4-0 in game seven and coming back to tie it up 5-5. It had the final game of the series go into extra innings. It had the greatest closer of all time (Mariano Rivera) going three full innings (the longest he has gone since becoming the closer.) It had him pitching three shutout innings. It had Bret Boone announcing in the booth watching brother. Aaron Boone hitting a walk-off home run to end it in the 11th inning. (Only the 5th postseason game in history to end on a homerun.)

Aaron Boone hit the walk-off home run to end the series and advance the Yankees to another World Series!
For at least one more year... The Curse of the Bambino LIVES!!!
both the Red Sox and the Cubs led and were five outs away from going to the World Series and both choked...
