Baseball Jones has published an interesting book that focuses solely on Game 5 of the 2004 ALCS. John Vampatella calls It “The Forgotten Game” and in a way he is right. Game 4 is where the comeback started but Game 5 is when the series turned after 14 innings of grueling grinding by both teams. By focusing on this one marathon contest, John reminds us how the Red Sox and Yankees fought tooth and nail until David Ortiz provided the winning blow.
As a Yankee fan, I highly recommend this book for its honest portrayal of Game 5, how close it was, and how much we have forgotten about the pivotal contest.
