The atmosphere in old Fulton Country Stadium with the drums and the tomahawk chop made that atmosphere even more tense. Now Turner Field is just dumb.

They had Jimmy Key on the mound for that save, who had pitched that incredible game 3 if I remember, so the call to Timlin was even more incredible! I somehow remember reading this year that Key actually told Gaston he didn't have it, which is an incredible amount of honesty from a pitcher 1 out away from the World Series.
I've watched the VHS tapes of both world series a hundred times over, Readers Digest produced them and did an incredible job. I still would've loved to actually watch the games, see the swings in momentum, the atmosphere and the tension between games.
