Yankees are a win from their first World Series appearance in six years after routing the Angels, 10-1. They have won six of their seven playoff games. Sabathia has won three of them. Rodriguez has five home runs and 11 RBIs. Welcome to the new Yankees

A-Rods numbers: 3-for-4 with a double, home run and two RBIs - and he also proved that he can still hurt the Angels on the basepaths

CC is the man

Sabathia has three of the Yankees' six postseason wins. He has pitched 22 2/3 of a possible 27 innings in his games. He has yielded just three earned runs in those 22 2/3 innings, walking three and striking out 20

Cabrera, who entered the game batting .200 for the playoffs, finished 3-for-4 with four RBIs -- for his first runs batted in this postseason

Finally, after five hours Melky Cabrera's ground ball to second baseman Maicer Izturis was thrown away at second, allowing Jerry Hairston Jr. to score from second and lift the Yankees to a pulsating 4-3 victory in front of 49,922 soggy and chilled fans at Yankee Stadium that took 13 innings -- and five hours and 10 minutes -- to finish
