In both series the Yankees have played this postseason, they have fallen behind by two games only to win the next three.
For as much playoff success the Yankees have had in their history, there aren’t as many wild, series-swinging comebacks as you might think. Obviously, they have come back from series deficits before. The 1996 World Series immediately comes to mind as one example. However, in many of their championship runs, they’ve often been playing from ahead.
The 1996 win was one obvious comeback, but another a little further back happened in 1956.
The Yankees took on the Brooklyn Dodgers in the 1956 World Series and quickly fell behind.
