in The Friday Brief
Just like the Yankees, this market refuses to give up. Down two games to none, the Yankees faced the possibility of a sweep by the upstart Arizona Diamondbacks as they came back to New York for game three of the World Series. But with faith, determination, and more than a little luck, they homered their way back into the series, winning all three of their games in front of the home crowd. In the last two games, the Yank hitters overcame the Diamondbacks in the ninth innings as they capitalized on the weakness of Arizona’s relief pitcher staff.
