...confirmed that two New Jersey postal workers, one from Hamilton, had been infected with anthrax. Gilmore knew from sources at Hamilton's Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital that there was not enough Cipro on hand to treat hundreds of postal workers and that many area pharmacies had run out. When he found out that state officials were planning to advise all Hamilton postal workers to contact their doctors and seek antibiotics, he was appalled. "The decision is made that they have to start a seven-day prescription of Cipro to maybe save their lives," he said. "But they're told...
...Pitching prevailed in this Series, and the Diamondback All Star duo, Schilling and Johnson, accounted for the four wins, besting the best rotation in the American League: Andy Pettitte (0-2), Roger Clemens (0-0), Mike Mussina (0-0), and Orlando Hernandez (0-0). And, had manager Bob Brenly not given Schilling the hook too early in Game 3, a seventh game might not have been necessary...
...Yanks batters under .200 as a team. In Game 1 in Phoenix, Curt Schilling paralyzed the Yankees with a combination of power and placement, and the Snakes quickly chased the Moose, Mike Mussina, en route to a 9-1 clubbing. In Game 2, 6-ft. 10-in. Randy Johnson, the Big Unit, threw peas past them. Andy Pettitte matched him until the seventh, holding the D-backs to one run.

...This is where it gets weird again. Pettitte could not get an out in the third inning. His replacement, Jay Witasick, could not get an out west of the Mississippi. The B-Backs hit doubles to right, scorched singles to left, and up the middle. Johnson, who looks like a licorice stick holding a pretzel rod when he?s at the plate, directed a single to right, making the score 7-0. The D- Backs now had a cadence going. Single, double, single, double. Torre had already conceded the game, leaving the miserable Witasick in to face an Arizona team...
...could Game 6 possibly produce anything close to what had happened in the Bronx? It couldn?t. Instead, baseball in the Twilight Zone had shifted into Pacific Standard Time. The matchup was the same as Game 1, with the Slim Jim slinger, Johnson, paired against Pettitte. The Big Unit came into the playoffs with a horrible 1-7 record, while Pettitte had proven big game credentials. But in this Series, everything that ever happened in baseball before it seems irrelevant. Johnson set the Yanks down in order in the first, while his teammates touched Pettite for a run. Pettitte...
