Nothing new in this World: Yankees rally past Braves
Paul O'Neill's two-run single broke a 1-1 tie.
Greg Maddux was cruising right along, until the eighth inning. That's when the Yankees took off, scoring four runs. Orlando Hernandez allowed one hit in seven innings, and New York took a 4-1 victory. The win was the Yankees' ninth straight in World Series competition.
Yankees turn it up a notch in 7-2 pasting of Braves
David Cone allowed one hit in seven innings.
Kevin Millwood certainly didn't have it. And neither did the Braves' bats. Sparked by a three-run first, the Yankees made quick work of Atlanta and easily grabbed a 7-2 victory to take a 2-0 lead in the Series. New York raised its record to 20-3 in the postseason over the last two years.
Curtis' HR gets Yankees within a win of another title
Chad Curtis belts his game-winning home run.
Chad Curtis, World Series hero? That's right. After hitting only five homers all year, Curtis lit up the New York sky with two homers, including the game-winner in the 10th, powering the Yankees to a 6-5 victory over the Braves and giving the Yanks a commanding 3-0 lead.
After two no-decisions in 1986, it took Roger Clemens 13 seasons to get back to the World Series. He made the most of the opportunity. The Rocket pitched 7 2/3 innings of the Yankees' 4-1 victory over the Braves on Wednesday. The Yanks completed their second
straight Series sweep, claiming their third world title of the '90s and 25th of the 20th century.
