Theme of the day for the Red Sox and Yankees.
Home teams are now 11-1 so far
Home teams are now 11-1 so far
I'm working but it will be a chill day.Off work today, so awesome
Greg Bird becomes the 4th youngest Yankee to hit a HR in an elimination game behind Mantle (Games 6 and 7, 1952 World Series), Joe Pepitone (Game 6, 1964 World Series), and Bill Skowron (Game 6, 1955 World Series).
He was 8 days younger than Robinson Cano when Cano hit a HR 10 years ago, to the day, in Game 4 of the 2007 ALDS against the Indians.
Small chance they play.Yanks are getting rained out tonight
How bout the Sox?
Will they be getting it in?
Small chance they play.
And in the history of the "best of 5" series, it's also been accomplished by:Only 3 teams have ever come back from down 0-2 after losing the first two games on the road.
2003 Red Sox over A's
1999 Red Sox over Indians
1995 Mariners over Yankees
The Bronx was electric last night, place was shaking
Shoulda won this series, just hope to bring it back to Cleveland
Bauer or Tomlin, the bats should come alive tonight
And than we will see if what happened Friday to Kluber was just a blip
How do you figure that?
It's also just the 7th time in team history a player has done it. Yesterday, the one already mentioned, and these:Tanaka became the first Yankees pitcher to go 7 IP and allow 0 ER in an elimination game since Mike Mussina in Game 3 of the 2001 ALDS. Yankees were also down 0-2 and also won 1-0 that day.
They'd go on to win the series.
