And it's timely...
...considering Kerry's great performance as closer in yesterday's game.
Ladies and gentlemen, your 2008 Chicago Cubs starting outfield: Soriano-Pie-Fukudome. Let it be.

I still get chills too . . .
It's amazing how completely lost many of these hitter looked. If Wood's fast ball is as explosive as it seems in this video, he should have no problems as closer this year.

I was lucky enough to witness that game.
Unbelievable how loud the stadium was that day. I was only 7, but thats one day I'll never forget.

There was....
There was a really nice video that was about a minute or two longer and was more in depth from pitch to pitch, especially on the last one.
It was taken down from youtube recently. II'll check around and see if I can find it anywhere else and I'll be sure to post it if I do.
