Yankees' fans enjoy World Series win

Nov 5 - Baseball fans celebrate as the New York Yankees beat the Philadelphia Phillies 7-3 to win their 27th World Series.

Hideki Matsui was named Most Valuable Player for the Yankees with a virtuoso performance, driving in six runs in the deciding game. That matched the mark set by Yankee second baseman Bobby Richardson in 1960.

In becoming the first Japanese player to win World Series MVP honours, Matsui belted a two-run homer, and hit a two-run double and two-run single to lead New York to the championship, winning the best-of-seven series five games to one, in their first season at the new Yankee Stadium.
