The Yankees stole this one.
Down to their final three outs, New York was staring at a potential 2-1 series deficit. With the score 2-1, they needed to find a way to score runs off Texas starter Darren Oliver, who was primed to finish off the complete game.
Like so many late inning rallies this season, this one began with none other than rookie sensation Derek Jeter, who lead off with a single to start the ninth.
The Yankees had looked dead all night, compiling just two hits before Jeter’s at-bat. Now, they had life.
