NEW YORK (Reuters) - The New York Yankees christened the new $1.5 billion Yankee Stadium the same way they opened "The House That Ruth Built" 86 years ago -- with a World Series title, the 27th for Major League Baseball's storied franchise.
The Bronx Bombers battered the Philadelphia Phillies 7-3 Wednesday to clinch the Fall Classic in six games and return the pinstripers to the pinnacle after a nine-year absence that seemed like an eternity to Yankee fans spoiled by success.
