ALCS Game 4

Yankees onto the World Series! With Phil Hughes struggling early against the 1915 Tigers, Derek Jeter provided the lift the team needed. He started out the game with a 1st inning HR, but the key moment of the game came in the bottom of the 7th. Tigers had Cobb on 1st with a single. Then Bobby Veach smacks a long deep drive to centerfield over Brett Gardner's head. Cobb is rounding 2nd then 3rd, on the way home! But Gardner throws the ball to the cutoff man, Jeter and Jeter throws out Cobb at home plate! That play seemed to take the wind out of Detroit and gave the Yankees new life. The Yankees go on to score 9 runs over the next 2 innings to take the win.
Cobb could've had his moment against Jeter in the top of the 9th when Derek could of rounded 3rd but Jeter with a smile towards Cobb smartly knew not to test him.

Yankees face either the defending champs 1967 Cardinals or the 1971 Pirates.
