On October 23, 2005 — For the 14th time in World Series history, a walk-off home run ends the contest;
The Chicago White Sox crashed two of the more dramatic home runs in recent World Series history to score a 7 – 6 victory against the Houston Astros and take a two-games-to-none lead in the Series. Paul Konerko, who hit 40 homers in the regular season, and Scott Podsednik, who hit none, provide the fireworks. Konerko, the ALCS MVP, hits a grand slam in the 7th inning to give the White Sox a 6 – 4 lead. Jose Vizcaino had just rapped a two-run single in the top of the inning to tie the score in the 9th against Chicago closer Bobby Jenks, Podsednik smacks a 2-1 pitch from Houston closer Brad Lidge into the bleachers in right-center field to trigger a boisterous celebration. Bill Mazeroski remains the only player to accomplish the feat in the seventh game of the Fall Classic.
The game is played in rain and 45-degree temperatures.
