On this
day in 2000 the Yankees would beat the Mets in the longest World Series game
ever played. The Yankees would beat the Mets 4-3 in a four hour and 51 minute
game that went 12 innings. This also keeps the streak alive at 13 consecutive
World Series games with a victory.
Also on
this day in 1998 the Yankees completed a four game sweep of the San Diego
Padres by winning 3-0. The Yankees would win their 24th World Series title in
their storied history and the 125th win of the season with the regular and post
season’s combined.
Finally
on this day in 1976, older Yankees fan turn your heads here because you are not
going to like this, the Yankees lost their fourth consecutive game getting
swept in the World Series. The "Big Red Machine" proved to be too
much for the Yankees team. The Reds would win 7-2 behind a two run home run and
a three run home run from Johnny Bench.
