2001 World Series · Game 7 · November 4, 2001 · Bank One Ballpark, Phoenix, AZ

Broken Bats and Bloops

The Yankees handed the game's most unhittable closer a 2-1 lead in the ninth. Then Arizona chipped away — a single, a botched Rivera throw, a Tony Womack double to tie it — until Luis Gonzalez blooped a soft single over a drawn-in infield to end the greatest World Series in a generation.
