third-generation major leaguer whose 11th-inning homer landed the yankees in the 2003 world series
une joueur de ligue majeur...


Explanation:
Aaron Boone, joueur des ligues majeures depuis trois générations (de grand-père au père au fils), qui frappat un circuit en onzième qui portat les Yankees au Séries Mondiales de 2003.

le 11th inning: un match de baseball dure normalement 9 manches. On prolonge les manches jusqu'à l'equipe visitante remporte une manche au complet ou dès que l'équipe maison compte un point (parce que l'équipe maison joue toujours deuxième).

Un xxth-inning homer, si le chiffre est plus que 8 (pour l'équipe maison) ou 9 pour l'equipe visitante veut normalement dire que le court-circuit a terminé le match et remporté la victoire.

Espérant...
