Come learn about this tradition in which we celebrate
and remember loved ones who have passed on from
this world but will live on in our hearts forever.
NEW YORK (AP) —
Baseball fans, meet the first Mr.
November — Derek Jeter.
Four minutes after midnight,
Jeter earned that distinction by
hitting a home run with two outs
in the bottom of lOth inning to
lift the New York Yankees over
the Arizona Diamondbacks 4-3
and tie the World Series at two
games each.
Tino Martinez saved the
Yankees on Wednesday night
with a two-out, two-run homer
in the ninth off Byung-Hyun
Kim, who had relieved a gutsy
Curt Schilling.
Then Jeter, who usually
shines in October, connected off
Kim. The Yankees spilled out of
the dugout to greet him at home
plate, where he landed with a
two-footed hop.
Jeter said it was the first
game-ending homer he could
remember, and it came shortly
after the Yankee Stadium score-
board flashed: “Welcome to
November Baseball.”
“We always feel as though
we have a chance to win a
game,” Jeter said. “When you
get to the postseason, you can
throw everything out that you’ve
done in the regular season.”
Schilling, pitching on three
days’ rest, did everything Arizona
could have asked. But when Kim
relieved, the game turned spooky
for the Diamondbacks on
Halloween night.
“We had a lead, we had six outs
left to go in the ball game," said
Arizona manager Bob Brenly.
“That’s the way we hoped it would
work out. Unfortunately, it didn’t.”
Now, the defending three
time champion Yankees will
send Mike Mussina against
Miguel Batista in Game 5
Thursday night.
Mariano Rivera broke three
bats in a perfect l Oth inning for
the win.
A crowd that included Mr.
October — Reggie Jackson —
had been crazy all night then
turned quiet in the ninth inning
with the Yankees in trouble.
Kim, who struck out the side
in the eighth, gave up a one-out
single to Paul O'Neill before
striking out Bemie Williams.
But Martinez, who had been
hitless in nine Series at-bats,
launched a drive over the center
field fence to tie it. The sellout
crowd of 55,863 roared, and sever
al Yankees jumped over the railing
in front of the dugout to celebrate.
Kim set down the first two
batters in the 10th. But Jeter,

who had been only
the Series, rose totheoccas

interviews and internships,” Corbelli said. “That’s taken a load oft
her mind and freed her up to be more focused on volleyball. It s
really showing in her play. The team is very dependent on her now.
With the Aggies heading on the road to play two tough games at
Baylor and at No. 2 Nebraska, Corbelli knows that efforts like
tonight might not be enough. But she remains confident in her team.
“I’m not too worried. We have the experience and the senioi matu
rity that I rely on with this group,” Corbelli said. “They are very moti
vated, and a determined group. I have a lot of confidence that we will
be ready for our next match. 1 know the team will be very ready.
