Struggling at plate, Teixeira picks it up with his glove

ANAHEIM, CALIF. -- Until the seventh inning of Game 5 of the American League Championship Series, Mark Teixeira -- once a star for the Los Angeles Angels, now a star for the New York Yankees -- had scarcely helped his present team more than his former team. Teixeira, playing in his first league championship series, had been just a touch off, watching called strikes go by, skying popups, relying only on his always-sterling defense to redeem himself.

'I'm obviously not hot right now,' Teixeira said Wednesday, one day before he got hot.
