New York (CNN) -- It was a busy night for New York Yankees Manager Joe Girardi -- not only did he lead his team to the World Series championship, but on his way home, he also helped the victim of a car accident get out of harm's way.

A great human interest piece. Wish they reported more of these type things than what Britney Spears or Lindsay Lohan did last night...

While I hate the Yankees with a fiery passion that only a real Mets fan could have, after I heard this story my opinion of Joe Girardi has changed. While he is only a hired gun paid only to win (like 95% of all Yankees), the fact that he had a heart, even after winning the greatest achievement in sports, and stops to help that woman, even at the risk of his own life due to the notoriously fast and dangerous traffic in the area speaks volumes as to his character, morals and virtues.
