Summary: Okay
Review: It's okay but I think the editing was poor. As a Yankee fan though, it gave consolation to me in that it clearly brought back how awesome the Yankees were in this contest. The Yanks gave the most exciting moments of the series with their homeruns.... I wasn't going to buy the video because I knew the ending wasn't what I wanted to see, but actually it made me remember that the Yankees played a better series and just lost due to an error.

Summary: A Great Memory of a Great Series (actually 4 1/2 stars)
Review: MLB has really come a long way and this is one of the best produced videos they have made to date. All the magic from the game tieing homeruns to the bloop single that capped a come from behind win for the Diamondbacks in game 7. Then we have the stellar performance of Randy Johnson, winning both games 6 and 7. Great drama, especially when Curt Schilling is removed from game 7 and he is told by manager Brenley, "you're my hero, big man." Great interviews, especially with Luis Gonzales and Mark Grace. Bonus features include all the dramatic homeruns as they were broadcast on network tv and the last pitch.

Summary: GREAT Series, LAME video/DVD
Review: The greatest series of our lifetime is highlited with too many edits. I think this was made for an audience with an attention span of a pea. What's with the fast panning, quick zooms, and random flashes of light? Many of the great plays are interrupted every two seconds for someones comments. Also, I can't stand this narrator who is trying to emulate Casey Kasem. Don't buy this unless you're used to the downward spiral of contemporary film editing.

Summary: PHENOMENAL WORLD SERIES!! DVD COVERS ALL BASES!!
Review: This DVD documents the 2001 World Series with first hand commentary from Brenly , Torre , Schilling & Johnson , Clemens , Gonzalez , Jeter , Bernie & Matt Williams , O'Neal , Martinez , Brosius , Soriano and other major players from this series. They nicely combine both the extremely sharp Fox TV footage with never before seen film footage from Major League Baseball (similar to NFL films). They mix together audio from Fox TV , KTAR (Arizona radio) , WABC (New York radio) , ESPN Radio , and MLB broadcasts. The combination of these elements along with the commentaries and musical score create a dramatic documentation of this already dramatic and amazing World Series. The program is divided into 12 chapters with each World Series game documented in its own chapter. The program summarizes the playoff series for both teams leading up to the World Series segments. The program even touches significantly on the effect of September 11th on the series and the players alike. The DVD extras are some of the big moments of the World Series. You get Counsell and Gonzalez' homers from game 1 , Matt Williams homer from game 2 , Martinez and Jeter's dramatic homers off of Yun Hun Kim in game 4 , Brosius' shocking deja vue homer off of Kim and Soriano's game winning hit in game 5 , and the entire bottom of the 9th from game 7. All extras footage from the Fox TV broadcasts. This is a terrific DVD from Major League Baseball narrated effectively by Curt Chaplin. You get commentary from the managers and players throughout the program. The film footage is very good (with its dramatic super slo-mo shots in the same vein as NFL films) and at times amazing and the Fox TV footage has an extremely sharp picture quality to it. It doesn't matter if you're a Diamondback fan or a Yankee fan it was a great series with both teams going toe to toe to the very end ; the D'backs with their backs against the wall in game 7 down by 1 in the ninth facing the best closer in the game. Considering the depressing effects of September 11 2001 America recieved relief courtesy of the American pastime being displayed at its best. Its a great DVD that covers all bases. It does justice for the series and circumstances leading to it.

Summary: Clearly November baseball is something very special...
Review: To tell the truth, I knew the Diamondbacks were going to win Game 7 when Randy Johnson came in as a relief pitcher. I suddenly knew that he was going to get his third win in the series; it was just a question of how it was going to happen. Of course, by the 9th inning of Game 7 it had already been well established that this was a World Series in which anything could happen. On the one hand you have the three-time defending World Champion New York Yankees, the most storied franchise in baseball history, and on the other hand you have the Arizona Diamondbacks, in the big show in only their fourth season as an expansion franchise. It is a bit simplistic to note that this was a World Series in which the home team won all seven games, which is certainly interesting since it was not a World Series involving the Minnesota Twins. In retrospect the key factor was the fact that the last four games, three of which were incredibly memorably because of 9th inning (and beyond) heroics, all ended in November, a new frontier for Major League Baseball. Like Carlton Fisk's famous home run in a losing effort, who can forget when lightning struck twice for the Yankees in Games 4 and 5? Then again, if you want to talk about lightning twins, how about Series Co-MVPs Randy Johnson and Curt Shilling? "2001 World Series - Arizona Diamondbacks vs. New York Yankees" covers all of the playoffs, so you will have all the replays you will ever need of Derek Jeter's backhanded flip to nail Jeremy Giambi at the plate. This tape makes especially good use of the interviews with the players, which are inserted to give additional insights into the key moments of the series (although Randy Johnson is notably missing from the talking heads). However, the narration is a bit heavy handed at times, especially given the tape tries to deal with the impact of September 11th on baseball in general and the New York Yankees in particular. When the magic is happening on the field right before your eyes, you do not need to hype the moment so much.
