Diamondbacks’ ninth inning, bases loaded, one out (score tied, 2-2): Luis Gonzalez, who hit .325 in the regular season with 142 RBIs and 57 home runs, had been rather quiet in the Series, batting only .231 (six for 26) with one RBI. He certainly couldn’t have picked a better spot to drive in his second run. Hitless in his first four at-bats, he made just enough contact on a fastball from Mariano Rivera to bloop the ball over Derek Jeter’s head into short center, driving in Jay Bell, the original free agent to sign with Arizona, with the game-winning run.
