Wow, 12 innings… numerous lead changes… a big hit by ARod to tie it up… and a sacrifice fly by Matsui to score Jeter and win it!

Add to that “The Rocket” pitching deep into the game for the Astros and getting his first win in the opener of a postseason series in his career… big homers from unexpected heroes (Berkman, Beltran, Ausmus and Lane all went deep)… and the Astros down the hated Braves!

Overall, it was a darn good day for baseball…
