What a game! Matsui was the freakin' man, he certainly had himself a day. There was no way he was going to leg out a triple to complete the cycle, but Japan must have been going nuts. But maybe not as close to how nuts Wash-Heights was. I was watching in a friends apartment, and a minute after the game ended, we ran up to the roof and heard the whole neighborhood just going crazy. Pots, pans, cars, vocal cords.
We gathered some stuff together and roamed down the streets yelling and cheering. Toilet paper hung from street lights, as a few piles of garbage lit on fire, while firecrackers went off amidst chants of "Let's go Yankees!", "Derek Jeter", "Mariano", "Twenty Seven", "Veinti-Siete!"
Great times.
