Ooops, fifth, from answerbag.com:
"The most recent is by the Los Angeles Dodgers vs. San Diego Padres September 18, 2006 in the bottom of the ninth. Down 9-5, which led to extra innings. Padres came up 10-9, and Nomar Garciaparra hit a two run blast in the bottom of the 10th to win with a walk off homer. Home runs were hit by Jeff Kent, JD Drew, Russell Martin, and Marlon Anderson"
2nd time for Drew!

Happy Birthday - Terry Francona.
Better luck next time (as long as its not against us, I mean) A-Rod.

The Sox have won five straight, are the best team in baseball right now, and have allowed the least runs of any team. Holla!

The last at-bat of the game - A-Rod v. Papelbon - was such an epic battle!

This was a fun moment. Lowell's was actually a good pitch, and a tough one to hit. Wow, glad I saw the whole thing go down.
Did the Yankees take an early lead in every one of the three games, only to have the Sox come back everytime? I think so. And what was with Petit coming in after throwong 100 pitches on Friday? (Now he misses his next scheduled start?)
The Yankee line-up: Damon, Jeter, Abrehu, A-Rod and Giambi is frightening, but with the current state their pitching without Posada, they need 8 runs to win games.

A friend of mine was at the game last night, and said the crowd went absolutely insane after one of the HRs when they started playing <a href = "http://www.brassbonanza.com/Sound/brassbonanza-2.mp3">"Brass Bonanza,"</a> a.k.a. the Hartford Whalers Victory March. Kind of a catchy tune, I'd go nuts for it.
And thousands of people dancing "The Robot" to "Mr. Roboto" simultaneously...must have been surreal.
