Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira has struggled in the World Series. He is hitting .105 against the Phillies after a regular season that including a .292 average, 39 home runs and 122 RBIs. New York teammate Alex Rodriguez, who has been criticized early and often throughout his Yankee career, has come to Teixeira's defense. "When you need to win four games," Rodriguez told the Associated Press, "it only takes one moment. If Johnny Damon gave us just that one at-bat the other night, that was his share of it. Mark has had big hits. He hits a three-run double tomorrow night, he's done his part. More than his part."
