  • Teixeira walkoff HR puts Yankees up 2-0 (AP)

    Minnesota Twins shortstop Orlando Cabrera(notes) pauses during the 10th inning of Game 2 of the American League division baseball series at Yankee Stadium in New York Friday, Oct. 9, 2009. The Yankees won the game in the 11th  inning 4-3.

    Mark Teixeira and Alex Rodriguez stood together as Yankee Stadium roared. Teixeira had the chills. Rodriguez had a smile that said it all — a satisfied look after putting years of postseason failure behind him. Teixeira hit a leadoff drive in the 11th inning to give New York a 4-3 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Friday night and a 2-0 lead in their AL playoff series.
