Derek Jeter’s third inning solo home run was his 19th career postseason home run giving him sole possession of third place on the all time postseason home runs list. He currently ranks behind Bernie Williams (22) and Manny Ramirez (29).
Mark Teixeira said after the game, “It was cold and it was nasty. I was like, ‘Man, let’s have a quick pitchers’ game tonight and win 2-1 and get out of here in an hour and a half.’ It definitely didn’t happen like that.”
About mobbing Jerry Hairston Jr. at home plate, Nick Swisher said, “I didn’t mean to, but I think I knocked Jerry down. The last thing you want to do is have somebody get all busted up in one of those things. But I think he’s good. At that point in time, I don’t think he felt anything.”
A-Rod said, “Wow, what a game.”
A-Rod also said at the after game press conference, “I know you guys are probably looking for something profound. I mean, I’m just in a good place. I’m seeing the ball, and I’m hitting it. I mean, that’s about it.”
The game lasted 5 hours and 10 minutes.
