The 2017 playoffs were stressful. Those 13 games were full of tension, but there are certain identifiable moments that stand above the others. The Yankees entering the bottom of the first inning of the Wild Card Game against the Twins, down by three, with Luis Severino already knocked out was enough to cause heart palpitations. Brett Gardner’s 12-pitch at-bat against the Indians’ Cody Allen in the ninth inning of game five of the ALDS felt like an eternity. But it was Game 3 of the ALDS that took years from every Yankee fan’s life.
