Four Days in October is a baseball documentary produced by Gary Waksman, ESPN and MLB Productions. It is episode 24 in the first season of the ESPN 30 for 30 series.
It chronicles the last four games of the 2004 American League Championship Series between the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees. The series became famous when the Red Sox—who lost the first three games of the series to the Yankees—became the first team in Major League Baseball history to win a best of 7 playoff series after falling behind 0-3.
The documentary begins with few highlights of the Yankees–Red Sox rivalry over the years and then some highlights from Game 3 which was won by the Yankees 19–8 at Fenway Park. The show's narrative begins with Game 4. The Yankees stood three outs away from sweeping the Red Sox at Fenway and advancing to their 40th World Series appearance. The series turned when the Red Sox rallied to tie the game in the 9th inning. They would win it on a home run by David Ortiz and keep the series alive. The ninth inning rally proved to be the turning point of the series as the Red Sox would win the next four games, clinching the series at Yankees Stadium.
The Red Sox would go on to sweep the St. Louis Cardinals and win their first World Series championship in 86 years a week later, ending the 2004 postseason on an 8 game winning streak. [...]Voir plus...
Synopsis
Lorsque la soirée du 16 octobre 2004 toucha à sa fin, la malédiction du Bambino était bien vivante. La fameuse équipe des Yankee, menée par Alex Rodriguez, Derek Jeter et Gary Sheffield, avait accumulé trois parties d'avance en championnat, et 19 runs face à leurs rivaux de toujours. Le soir suivant, lors du 4ème match, les Yankees menaient 4-3 à la fin du neuvième tour de batte, et laissèrent la partie à Mariano Rivera, le meilleur lanceur de relève d'après-saison de toute l'histoire, pour assurer leur ticket pour les Séries mondiales. Mais après un but sur balles et un but difficilement volé, le vent froid d'octobre commença à souffler. Pendant quatre journées et soirées consécutives, ce groupe invraisemblable des Red Sox réussit miraculeusement à gagner quatre parties d'affilée et à déjouer leur inévitable destin. [...]Voir plus...

When the ball landed in the right-field bleachers at what was then Pac Bell Park (San Francisco), there was a mad scramble for the precious ball, bodies piled up on the walkway above McCovey Cove. Patrick Hayashi, who stood quietly with a sheepish grin on his face as the scrum continued, eventually held the historic ball up for a TV camera to reveal that he had possession of it. MLB and Giants security grabbed Mr. Hayashi and escorted him down to the bowels of the ballpark and authenticated his baseball as the true #73. [...]Voir plus...
