CLEVELAND — It was a moment 15 years in the making, a deep drive that cut through the October sky, climbing high and far and landing in the World Series. The Yankees acquired Juan Soto last winter to return them to the stage they once owned. Saturday in Cleveland, he delivered on that dream.
When it was all over, and the final out had found Soto in right field, he squeezed it and romped joyously to mob closer Luke Weaver on the infield grass.
