Enter the “Bronx Bombers,” who had disposed of the Baltimore Orioles in an every other win scenario and the Yankees emerging with a 3-2 series victory. Game 1 of the ALCS between New York and Detroit was held in Yankee Stadium on October 13th. The two teams seemed evenly matched after the Yankees scored 4 runs in the bottom of the 9th to tie it at 4 all. Then, in the 12th, not only did the Yanks lose the game 6-4, but even more importantly, lost team leader Derek Jeter due to a broken ankle. The rest was history, as the Tigers went on to sweep New York 4 wins to none.
In the meantime, the Giants were doing their usual thing in the NLDS by dropping the first 2 games at home, only to return to Cincinnati and sweep the Reds at home 3-0.
