Chicago vs. Seattle

For the third time in the last six seasons, the Seattle Mariners were in the postseason. The Chicago White Sox returned to the postseason for the first time since 1993. This series ended with a game-winning bunt by Carlos Guillén in Game 3 to deliver Seattle to their first ALCS in five years.

Game 1

Home runs:
SEA: Joe Oliver (1), Edgar Martínez (1), John Olerud (1)
CWS: Ray Durham (1)

Freddy García faced Jim Parque in the series opener in Chicago. Parque struggled early and often, allowing a single to Rickey Henderson and hitting Mike Cameron with a pitch to open the game. An RBI single by Alex Rodriguez that moved Cameron to third and a forceout by John Olerud put the Mariners up 2–0. Joe Oliver's leadoff homer made it 3–0 in the second. However, in the bottom half, Paul Konerko drew a leadoff walk, moved to second on a groundout, and scored on a triple by Chris Singleton, who then scored on a wild pitch by García to make it a one-run game. In the bottom of the third, the Mariners' lead evaporated when Ray Durham homered to tie it, then José Valentín walked before Magglio Ordóñez tripled in the go-ahead run for Chicago.

The game remained 4–3 until the top of the seventh, when Cameron hit a two-out bases-loaded single off Chad Bradford, who had just relieved Bob Howry. That hit to right almost gave the Mariners the lead, but David Bell was thrown out at home by Ordóñez to end the inning. Seattle threatened again in the eighth and Chicago in the ninth, but both came up empty and the game moved to extra innings. In the top of the tenth, Cameron led off with a single to left off closer Keith Foulke, then Rodriguez flew out high to left. After an unconventional conference with manager Lou Piniella and a pitchout, Cameron stole second on a 2–0 changeup, then Edgar Martínez lined the next pitch over the left field wall. On the very next pitch, Olerud homered to center, and the Mariners led by three. Closer Kazuhiro Sasaki gave up a leadoff double off Bell's glove, then got a ground ball to second and struck out two for the save.[10][11][12]

The White Sox struck first with back-to-back leadoff doubles by Ray Durham and José Valentín off Paul Abbott, but the Mariners loaded the bases in the second off Mike Sirotka on a double, walk, and hit-by-pitch when David Bell's single and Dan Wilson's sacrifice fly scored a run each, putting them up 2−1. The White Sox tied the game in the third on Carlos Lee's sacrifice fly, but Seattle regained the lead on Jay Buhner's home run in the fourth.

Next inning, Rickey Henderson drew a leadoff walk, moved to second on a sacrifice bunt, stole third, and scored on Alex Rodriguez's groundout to make it 4−2 Mariners. In the ninth, they extended the lead to 5−2 on Mike Cameron's RBI single off Mark Buehrle that scored Mark McLemore from third, the run charged to Bill Simas. Seattle closer Kazuhiro Sasaki struck out all three batters he faced in the bottom of the inning as the Mariners went up 2−0 and the series headed to Seattle.[13][14]

Game 3

WP: José Paniagua (1–0)   LP: Kelly Wunsch (0–1)

In Game 3, the first postseason game at Safeco Field, James Baldwin faced Aaron Sele in the clincher. Facing elimination, the White Sox took an early 1–0 lead in the top of the second on a sacrifice fly by Herbert Perry to score Harold Baines, who had doubled and went to third on a fly out to right. In the bottom of the fourth, the Mariners tied the game on an RBI single by Stan Javier. A pitcher's duel took place and both teams struggled to score in the afternoon autumn sun, with only seven hits total in the first eight innings, tied at one run each.

Lefthander Arthur Rhodes relieved Sele in the eighth and threw one pitch, which resulted in an inning-ending double play by second baseman Mark McLemore. Rhodes struck out the first two batters in the top of the ninth and José Paniagua came in to face Frank Thomas, who was hitless in the series. After three balls, the count was worked to full but ended in a walk, then Magglio Ordóñez struck out. In the bottom of the ninth, John Olerud hit a hard line drive back at lefthander Kelly Wunsch and off his stomach, toward the third base line; his rushed errant throw allowed Olerud to move to second. Keith Foulke relieved Wunsch and Rickey Henderson entered as a pinch runner; Javier's sacrifice bunt toward third moved Henderson to third. David Bell walked on four pitches and then pinch hitter Carlos Guillén swung and fouled off the first pitch. He then drove in the series-winning run with a walk-off drag bunt past a diving Thomas.[15][16][17]

Next inning, Miguel Tejada singled with one out and scored on Eric Chavez's double, but New York got that run back on Justice's home run in the fourth off Kevin Appier---the Yankees' only home run in this series. In the bottom of the inning, the A's loaded the bases on two singles and a walk when back-to-back sacrifice flies by Jason Giambi and Olmedo Saenz made it 7−5. After allowing a single to Tejada, Pettitte was relieved by Mike Stanton, who pitched two shutout innings in relief to get the win. Neither team scored for the rest of the game as the Yankees' win advanced them to the ALCS. During the Yankees' run of three consecutive World Series titles from 1998 to 2000, this was the only time they faced elimination in the postseason.
