Bernie Williams saved the Yanks bacon tonight by hitting the go ahead home run in the top of the ninth inning to defeat the Nationals 7-5. Flashing signs of the once great center fielder, Bernie went 4-5 with two singles a double and the game winning bomb as he carried the Yanks on his back. The Bombers squandered a gazillion chances all night. My God, they left 26 men on base. I repeat, they left 26 men on base, but Bernie goes boom and saves the day.
