Dominican play helps win World Series

Two crucial plays by Dominican shortstop Juan Uribe were crucial to the 1-0 Chicago White Sox win that landed them their first World Series Championship in 88 years. In the seventh inning of the game, Juan Uribe left Houston players in second and third base with two outs with a strike out. And then in the ninth inning of the game, Uribe makes a heart-stopping catch, going into the stands to catch Chris Burke’s foul pop and to just nip Orlando Palmeiro at first on a grounder to short, as reported in the Chicago Sun Times.
