David Justice propels the Yankees with a three-run home run to their record 37th American League pennant

On October 17, 2000 — In a come-from-behind victory over the Seattle Mariners, 9 – 7, David Justice propels the Yankees with a three-run home run to their record 37th American League pennant, setting up a Subway Series in New York for the first time in 44 years. In the game, Mariners catcher Dan Wilson snaps the longest hitless streak in postseason history by ending his 0-for-42 skid with an opposite field single. Marv Owen of the Detroit Tigers had gone 0 for 31 in the 1934 and 1935 World Series.
