Yes indeed.
I believe that photo is Matsui's cap as he "blazed" by the bases. OK, maybe with his bad knees, as he "burned" pitchers is a better thing to say.

Looking forward to next year's REMATCH!  |
It was truly a great series. Neither team ever quit. As I had said earlier, on paper, no doubt the Yankees were the better team. As others said, that doesn't always mean they will win. The Phillies were a worthy opponent to be in that series with the Yankees. They did what every team would like to do that wins a World Series, they were back to defend their title come what may.
In this case, it worked out for the Yankees. I really thought this would drag out to a painful 7 games.
