Yankees rally to top Twins 7-2 in Game 1 (AP)

The New York Yankees, right, and the Minnesota Twins line the base paths during ceremonies before Game 1 of the American League division baseball series at Yankee Stadium in New York Wednesday, Oct. 7, 2009. The Yankees won 7-2 in the first playoff game at the new stadium.

Derek Jeter got a big hit, just as he did in Octobers past at the famed ballpark across the street. CC Sabathia joined in the postseason fun. Even Alex Rodriguez broke out of his playoff rut. It was like old times in the first postseason game at the new Yankee Stadium, with New York beating these tired Minnesota Twins 7-2 Wednesday night in the opener of their AL playoff series.
