The Series lasted seven games, and it with an equally memorable moment. Game Seven was played in Yankee Stadium, and after nine innings, the score was tied, 5-5. In the bottom of the tenth, the Yankees loaded the bases with two out against Oakland’s ace reliever, Ken Smith. Ed Walsh was summoned from the bullpen, and he allowed a Series-winning base on balls to Yankees pinch-hitter Neal Finn.

I got a little worried after the first game no-hitter, but I'm glad the Yankee's were finally able to build a team capable of winning the World Series.
I'm relieved to know that at least the Yankees have been drafting well, and hopefully they'll be able to stay on top at least a couple seasons....
