2000 Official World Series Video - New York Yankees vs. New York Mets [VHS]

This 70-minute video offers over 50 minutes of Series coverage, including pitching duels, base-running blunders, and surprise heroes. Game 2, of course, is best known for the infamous bat-throwing incident between Yankees hurler Roger Clemens and Mets slugger Mike Piazza, which you'll see from several angles (the overhead is the most unusual and most interesting). A bonus is this video's inclusion of something as small (yet significant) as Paul O'Neill's tough 10-pitch walk that began the tying rally in Game 1, and there are interviews with role players such as Luis Sojo and Benny Agbayani as well as stars Derek Jeter (the series MVP) and David Justice. After five hard-fought games, the Yankees had won their fourth championship in five years and carried an emotional Joe Torre off the field. Bernie Williams comments, "It's just amazing the fact that we have been able to do it year after year after year." It might not be so amazing considering the Yankees' $114 million payroll for 2000, but of all baseball's big spenders, the Yankees are far and away the most successful. The dynasty continues. --David Horiuchi
