Home Groan

Boston first baseman Eric Hinske barreled into Jorge Posada at the plate in the sixth inning last Saturday, but the Yankees catcher held on to the ball to get the out. Hinske's hard charge fired up the Red Sox, who scored 10 unanswered runs and prevailed 10-1, their only victory in the three-game series at Fenway Park.

Tiger's Last Sand

After hitting out of a fairway bunker on the 17th hole, Tiger Woods went on to finish Sunday's round in the Tour Championship with a 66 at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta. His tournament-record 257 total, 23 under par, gave Woods an eight-stroke victory and earned him the inaugural FedEx Cup, worth a $10 million bonus (page 42).

End in Sight

Nebraska quarterback Sam Keller had his passing lane blocked by 6'5" defensive end Lawrence Jackson of USC last Saturday in Lincoln. While Keller threw for 389 yard and two touchdowns, the top-ranked Trojans rolled 49--31 (page 46)
